A new genome-wide mapping method finally shows how thousands of genes connect to drive disease. Biomedical researchers are working intensively to identify the genes that contribute to disease, with ...

Scientists discovered that certain gene changes allow cells to function even when frataxin, the protein lost in Friedreich’s ...

A new machine-learning approach helps scientists more efficiently identify the optimal intervention to achieve a certain outcome in a complex system, such as genome regulation, requiring far fewer ...

That rogue scientist who created HIV-resistant designer babies is apparently gearing up for more human gene-editing research. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, He Jiankui said he wants to ...

I’m writing to make visible an invisible and immediate threat to our local agriculture, economy, and environment — researchers who may be conducting secret field tests on genetically engineered (GE) ...
