DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body's basic components. However, building a functioning organism also requires precise instructions about when, where, and how ...

Newly arrived space station astronaut Kate Rubins wore top-level biosafety suits for her work on Earth, but that won't be needed when she fires up a pocket-sized device to decode DNA in space. Rubins, ...

Artificial intelligence can read data stored in DNA strands within 10 minutes rather than the days required for previous methods, bringing DNA storage closer to practical use in computing. “DNA can ...

Scientists have developed a breakthrough method to track diet using stool metagenomic data. Developed by researchers at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB), the new method, called MEDI ...

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming medicine’s most powerful microscope, revealing patterns in human DNA that were invisible to doctors and researchers only a few years ago. Instead of ...

Each cell in our bodies carries about two meters of DNA in its nucleus, packed into a tiny volume of just a few hundred cubic micrometers-about a millionth of a milliliter. The cell manages this by ...
