A new artificial intelligence algorithm can create full human genomes. Find out why scientists aren't sure how useful this genetic code is.

The near-universality of the DNA code is convincing evidence modern life traces back to a single ancestor ...

This research roundup explores the role of sugar molecules in brain degeneration, a machine learning algorithm to detect diseases and a generative AI tool that can generate original genetic code.

Shulgina joined Eddy's lab, which specializes in comparing genomes, in 2016 after coming to him for advice on the algorithm she was designing to interpret genetic codes.

Scientists say using math to sort through DNA could help investigators put stubborn cold cases to rest. The approach combines the relatively new field of forensic genetic genealogy—solving crime ...

The first genetic admixture event casts such deeper shadows over the subsequent interbreeding of Neanderthals and Homo sapiens 50,000 years ago that contributed some 2% of the genome to non-Africans.
