Research suggests that ancient viral-DNA embedded in the human genome is playing a key role in early embryo development. Around 8% of our genome consists of endogenous retrovirus DNA — the remnants of ...

Genome editing is increasingly recognzed as a leading frontier in biomedical research and an essential driver of healthcare innovation. At City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK), a research team has ...

The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the genome editing market, focusing on technologies like CRISPR-Cas, TALEN, and ZFN. It assesses applications across biopharma, ag biotech, and research ...

Bacteriophages designed with AI kill E. coli faster than a well-studied strain, but the tech needs regulation before moving beyond lab dishes.

Here, biology kind of takes over. If the phage genome that the AI model generated is legit, the proteins will start to self-assemble into a phage. You’ll know it’s worked when that phage goes on to ...

US biotech Ansa Biotechnologies has raised $45.2 million and secured a further $9.2 million in commitments through an oversubscribed series B financing, aiming to expand its DNA synthesis technology.

New research across seven global biobanks shows that the DNA driving disease onset does not determine survival; instead, lifespan-linked genes and cross-trait scores hold the real clues to prognosis.

Researchers at Integra Therapeutics , in collaboration with the Pompeu Fabra University (UPF) Department of Medicine and Life Sciences ( MELIS ) and ...

Research on María Branyas, the world's oldest woman at 117, reveals how healthy diet, beneficial gut bacteria and protective genes contributed to her record-breaking longevity.

A new study offers clues about what made Maria Branyas Morera exceptional — and what it could mean for the rest of us.

Several factors make ovarian cancer particularly challenging to treat. This is largely because the cancer often spreads at a microscopic level within the abdomen early on, resulting in diagnosis at an ...
