Although DNA is tightly packed and protected within the cell nucleus, it is constantly threatened by damage from normal ...

Scientists at Google DeepMind —the company’s artificial intelligence research arm—say they’ve created an A.I. tool that can ...

Biologists have uncovered a new mode of communication inside cells that helps bacterial pathogens learn how to evade drugs.

While many foodborne pathogens only affect the digestive system, listeriosis can spread into normally sterile parts of the body including blood and the brain, giving rise to life threatening ...

A new AI model from Google DeepMind called AlphaGenome can predict how DNA mutations affect biological processes, helping pinpoint genes linked to diseases and speeding up drug discovery.

It took a quarter century of dead ends and strange leads before DNA evidence led a family to the real killer of Herman Wilder of Dahlonega.

Hackathons using AlphaGenome and other AI models are hunting down the genetic causes of devastating conditions that have ...

Chromosomes are masters of organization. These long strings of DNA fold down into an ensemble of compact structures that keep needed parts of the genome accessible while tucking away those that aren't ...
