While the genes involved can differ, this example illustrates how most cancers arise. Accumulated DNA mutations, acquired either over time (ageing naturally leads to some DNA mistakes) or from ...
Engineers at the University of Pennsylvania and Rice University have refined a technology for editing individual genetic "base pairs" to a new level of precision, opening the door to safer, more ...

Researchers have found that a new base-editing gene therapy can help treat a rare neurodevelopmental disorder called Snijders Blok–Campeau syndrome caused by mutations in the CHD3 gene. A specialized ...
After the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, escaped domestic pigs bred with wild boar, creating a hybrid population.
Abstract: Exploring path planning techniques for autonomous vehicles to find the safest and quickest routes is fascinating. Among these techniques, generating grid-based maps is notable for ...
Abstract: Despite the wide variety of applications and use cases that can be solved with the help of machine learning algorithms, researchers have yet to develop a general artificial intelligence ...
Autism spectrum disorder is complex; it presents differently in different patients, and the causes are still unclear, even though hundreds of small changes in gene sequences have been linked to an ...
A mitochondrial DNA mutation passed down through the maternal line in some Venezuelan families has been linked to severe brain injury and death in healthy patients undergoing routine anesthesia.
AlphaGenome is a leap forward in the ability to study the human blueprint. But the fine workings of our DNA are still largely a mystery. By Carl Zimmer In 2024, two scientists from Google DeepMind ...
