From synthetic chromosomes and recoded genomes to next-generation gene therapies and engineered cells, discover how genome-scale engineering is redefining the possibilities of biology while reshaping ...

Researchers at the New York Genome Center have found that the human hippocampus undergoes a sharp, previously undocumented ...

Sequencing nearly half a million genomes, researchers show that most additive genetic influences on height, lipids, and other complex traits are now directly measurable, while pinpointing ultra-rare ...

For decades, the hunt for the genetic roots of common disease has focused overwhelmingly on single-letter changes in the DNA ...

A research team led by Zhiping Weng, Ph.D., and Jill Moore, Ph.D."18, at UMass Chan Medical School, has nearly tripled the known number of potential regulatory elements in the genome to 2.37 million, ...

The history of genomics has long been a story of reading a book where only every fiftieth page made sense. While the Human Genome Project gave us the full sequence of human DNA over two decades ago, ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic ...

Today, genomics is saving countless lives and even entire species, thanks in large part to a commitment to collaborative and open science that the Human Genome Project helped promote. Twenty-five ...
