The Human Genome Project changed everything. A map of the entire human sequence of DNA was the starting point for an enormous number of discoveries, from disease genes to how humans evolved. But DNA ...

It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...

An expansive new study offers clear evidence that sequencing the genomes of diverse populations can yield fresh insights into how our DNA shapes our health. A team of researchers involved in an ...

Scientists map the true nature of the genome with its loops and folds in four dimensions across time and space.

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published in Nature.

A team of researchers has generated one of the most detailed 3D maps of human chromosomes, cataloging over 140,000 DNA looping interactions.

The ability to sequence and edit human DNA has revolutionized biomedicine. Now a new consortium wants to take the next step and build human genomes from scratch. The Human Genome Project was one of ...

Regeneron collaborates with Truveta to expand a genomic database, investing $119.5 million to enhance genetics-based healthcare research. Regeneron's $119.5 million investment in Truveta's Series C ...

The Human Genome Project was a massive undertaking that took more than a decade and billions of dollars to complete. For it, scientists collected... The dubious consent question at the heart of the ...

Buried in the desert for roughly 4,500 years, the skeleton of a single Egyptian man has yielded a complete genome that redraws the map of the ancient world. His DNA captures a moment when people from ...
