We know the genes, but not their functions—to resolve this long-standing bottleneck in microbial research, a joint research team has proposed a cutting-edge research strategy that leverages artificial ...

Smart parents breed smart kids. That seems like common sense. And today another study came out reinforcing that claim. By looking at DNA, researchers have linked genes to IQ, according to a study in ...

Sometimes, in genetics, two wrongs do make a right. A research team has recently shown that two harmful genetic variants, ...

Picture CRISPR-Cas9, a gene editing technology, as a GPS-guided scalpel: gRNA directs the Cas9 enzyme, a protein that cuts ...

Gene-set analysis seeks to identify the biological mechanisms underlying groups of genes with shared functions. Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in generating functional descriptions ...

We know the genes, but not their functions.” To resolve this long-standing bottleneck in microbial research, a joint research ...

For years, anecdotal evidence and old wives' tales suggested various origins for intelligence, but what does modern science actually say? Get ready to put those family debates to rest, because we're ...

Gene tree and species tree reconciliation is a pivotal framework in evolutionary biology that bridges the evolutionary histories of individual gene families with the broader context of species ...

Gene expression, where cells use the genetic information encoded in DNA to produce proteins, has been thought of as a dimmer light. How much a particular gene gets expressed continually rises and ...

Your intelligence genes: 52 and counting Live Science: Douglas Detterman, the Louis D. Beaumont University Professor Emeritus, discussed a study finding a correlation between 52 genes and intelligence ...
