Researchers developed an algorithm that maps human genetic diversity and ancestry to better understand population history.

But the human genome also contains more than 50,000 ... Published today in The EMBO Journal is the first comprehensive map of these unique DNA structures, shedding light on their potential roles ...

From diseases to personality traits, it's the most comprehensive human genome to date. Venter's gene map provides a new understanding of his genetic destiny, according to the DNA inherited from ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic ...

What if you could take a picture of every gene inside a living organism—not with light, but with DNA itself? Scientists at ...

The first complete DNA methylation atlas of 39 human cell types reveals which genes can talk or are silenced, depending on whether their sequence is linked to methyl group epigenetic modification that ...

Researchers have developed an algorithm that maps shared ancestry across geography and time in a move that could reshape how scientists study human genetic diversity. The method may help uncover how ...

It is also frequently used for other benefits, like wildlife studies, paternity testing, body identification, and in studies pertaining to human dispersion.While most aspects of DNA are identical ...

Thanks to the Human Genome Project, researchers have sequenced all 3.2 billion base pairs in the human genome. How did researchers complete this chromosome map years ahead of schedule? Initial ...

genes that perform certain functions in lower animals have been maintained even in the human DNA script, though sometimes the genes have been modified for more complex functions. This thread of ...
