The power of artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced computing has made it possible to design genetic sequences encoding ...

Scientists at the Broad Institute and Mass General Brigham have built a generative AI model that creates short DNA segments ...

In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

A new technology elucidated yesterday in the journal Nature has the potential to be a leap forward in DNA synthesis, allowing ...

Researchers at Forschungszentrum Jülich and Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf have developed a tool that could significantly transform genome research: Helixer identifies genes directly from DNA ...

For stem cells to differentiate into the appropriate cell-type, transcription factors (TFs) must be tailored to highly specific expression patterns of lineage-specific genes. Abnormalities in the ...

A major technological advance in DNA writing enables researchers to construct and create in the language of biology ...

A 14,400-year-old wolf puppy’s last meal is shedding light on the last days of one of the Ice Age’s most iconic megafauna ...

New research suggests the mysterious Roman-era “Beachy Head Woman” was likely from Britain, not the Mediterranean or ...

Imagine you work for a hypothetical gene synthesis company, one of dozens around the world that manufacture tiny strands of custom nucleic acids like DNA for customers in academia and industry. DNA ...
