Precision medicine models often rely on data from Northern European populations, leading to treatment inequities. Genetic diversity is crucial for understanding disease risk and treatment efficacy, as ...
A wave of AI foundation models built on plant DNA sequences is giving researchers new tools to annotate genomes, predict gene function, and measure crop traits faster than traditional methods allow.
ITHACA, N.Y. – A team of ecologists and engineers from Cornell University have made a breakthrough in understanding environmental DNA (eDNA) movement in water. Researchers developed synthetic DNA that ...
In a step toward treating mitochondrial diseases, researchers at the University Medical Center Utrecht and their colleagues have used mitochondrial base editing (mtBE) to successfully edit harmful ...
Some of your most important life partners are the mitochondria that power all your cells. You and these little cellular powerhouses are in a 1.5-billion-year-old evolutionary relationship—but ...
