A novel DNA-wrapped nanostructure transforms a poorly soluble chemotherapy drug into a targeted cancer treatment, ...

DNA shines a light back into the past, showing us things that fossils can't. But how far back can that light extend? Some of the oldest DNA sequences come from mastodon and polar bear fossils about 50 ...

An artificial intelligence model predicts how brain immune cells react to RNA and DNA nanoparticles, helping scientists design safer and more effective nucleic acid therapies faster.

This statement might sound like a line from a sci-fi movie, but what if life on Earth didn’t start here at all? For decades, ...

Seven years after the first gene-edited babies were revealed, biotech startup Manhattan Genomics is reviving the idea of ...

Some scientists instead believe Dsup acts like a shield. In this model, Dsup coats and physically blocks radiation from striking DNA. Others think it boosts the cell’s repair machinery, fixing damage ...

Through cutting-edge methods and advanced artificial intelligence analysis, UNC Charlotte researchers leading a ...

Scientists reengineered chemo drug into spherical nucleic acids (SNAs), a globular form of DNA. Team tested the repackaged ...

As humans age, we become more vulnerable to cancer and other diseases. Bowhead whales, however, can live for up to 200 years ...

Feinberg School of Medicine New research reveals the second language of the human genome – one not written in its chemical letters but in its physical shape. Scientists have long thought of DNA as an ...

Scientists used DNA testing on 1,200-year-old feces to detect E. coli, pinworms, and Giardia in ancient Mexico, and found ...

Frogs have made significant contributions to Fred Hutch science over the years as a model organism that shares much of our ...
