Scientists have developed new biological parts that are able to shape the flow of cellular processes along DNA. Scientists at the University of Bristol have developed new biological parts that are ...

Using multiple sequencing technologies to analyze the genetics of a four-generation family allowed researchers to see how human DNA changes over time. Knowing how human DNA changes over generations is ...

Tiny repeated stretches of DNA in your genome may quietly shape how your body works, how your brain develops and how you respond to disease. A new study from scientists at The Hospital for Sick ...

Dutch researchers Jeroen van den Beucken and John Jansen have given body implants a DNA layer. This layer ensures a better attachment, more rapid recovery of the surrounding tissue and less immune ...

When I imagine the inner workings of a robot, I think hard, cold mechanics running on physics: shafts, wheels, gears. Human bodies, in contrast, are more of a contained molecular soup operating on the ...

EMERYVILLE, CALIFORNIA--Six months since it launched, the world's first factory for making professional-quality biological DNA 'parts' is beginning to stock its shelves. More than 60 people--academic ...

When Feng Zhang was a graduate student in the early 2000s, he helped make a groundbreaking discovery: Light-sensitive proteins from pond scum can actually be inserted into brain cells, giving ...

A little over a year ago, an initiative by the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) launched, aiming to sharply mitigate the risks of counterfeit electronic parts entering the military supply system. A ...
