This convincing study is a splendid advance in approximately doubling the number of sequenced chiton genomes, providing what appears to be among the best genome annotations for chiton genomes ...

Genes are the blueprints of life. Genes control everything from hair color to blood sugar by telling cells which proteins to make, how much, when, and where. Genes exist in most cells. Inside a ...

We show that leadership skill with artificially intelligent (AI) agents predicts leadership skill with human groups. In a large pre-registered lab experiment, human leaders worked with AI agents to ...

Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a common respiratory infection that peaks in winter and spring. It caused panic at the start of the year when a surge of cases in China raised fears of another ...

There are hundreds of different strains and species of viruses that cause colds – and many can present just like hay fever - E+ ...

"When people read about repairing genetic material, they often think of it as being in response to exposure to toxins or radiation," says Jacob Corn, Professor of Genome Biology at ETH Zurich.

A U.S. federal judge on Tuesday rejected requests for new trials for two men convicted on human smuggling charges in the deaths of four members of a family from India who froze to death while ...

Blood samples were collected from about 20,000 individuals, of which DNA samples from 10,074 individuals were subjected to whole genome sequencing. About 100 samples were collected from each ...

A 2021 effort to obtain DNA from old bones had yielded only a tiny amount, not enough to accurately decode the genome in detail. And without a detailed gene map, Colossal wouldn’t be able see ...

Having a cat or a dog as a companion can increase human life satisfaction and well-being as much as family and friends do, according to new Kent-led research. Analysis by economic researchers ...
