Many statistical models and algorithms used by scientists can be imagined as a "black box." These models are powerful tools that give accurate predictions, but their internal workings are not easily ...

The research team turned to the UK Biobank - a study of about 400,000 people who had the full sequence of their genetic code, their DNA, recorded. Just over 38,000 were left-handed. And the ...

Yet, this leads to ethical and legal challenges. The genetic codes of plants and animals from all over the world are stored in international databases, often without proper acknowledgement or ...

How can just four nitrogenous bases--adenine, cytosine, guanine, and uracil--possibly code for all 20 amino acids? Thus, early researchers quickly determined that the smallest combination of As ...
