At the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, scientists created a new way to tell someone’s age using just a bit of DNA. This ...

Scientists sought to work out genetic errors by creating their own artificial genome, which replaced E. coli’s original ...

The synthetic bacteria contain a shorter genetic code with 57 codons rather than 64, freeing up space for further edits that might lead to new drugs or virus-resistant microbes ...

A group of scientists has sequenced the genome of a man who was buried in Egypt around 4,500 years ago. The study offers rare insight into the genetic ancestry of early Egyptians and reveals links to ...

The team studied Rhodotorula toruloides, a red yeast used to produce substances called oleochemicals. Scientists use a ...

With the power to rewrite the genetic code underlying countless diseases, CRISPR holds immense promise to revolutionize medicine. But until scientists can deliver its gene-editing machinery safely and ...

Egypt’s heat and terrain made it difficult for such studies to be conducted but lead researcher Adeline Morez Jacobs and team ...

With new support from the National Institutes of Health and USF’s CREATE Award, USF researchers are unraveling how MRSA ...

Scientists said the findings offer the first robust evidence that genes contribute to a person’s chance of developing the ...
