Completed in 2003, the Human Genome Project gave us the first sequence of the human genome, albeit based on DNA from a small ...

Genome assemblies from 65 individuals, representing a variety of the world’s populations, are advancing the scientific exploration of complex genetic structural variation. Structural variations are ...

In a first-of-its-kind experiment tracing evolution across 25 generations, scientists have discovered that marine ...

Gene editing may hold the key to rescuing endangered species—not just by preserving them, but by restoring their lost genetic ...

The paper’s authors estimate that the data provided, representing modern day individuals from five continental groups, contains evidence of genetic variation in the Y chromosome spanning more ...

By exploiting the genetic variation in cancer cells, an already approved cancer drug demonstrated enhanced effects against cancer cells in specific patient groups. This is shown in a recent study ...
