A new study has created a map of DNA modification in two regions of the brain critical to learning, memory and emotional regulation. The map offers a benchmark for ensuring stem cell-based models ...

A significant advancement in knowledge of the link between cognition and genetics has been made thanks to a study led by ...

Researchers in Basel have created SEED/Harvest, a new CRISPR-based technique that tags proteins without leaving any genetic “scars.” By blending two powerful methods, it allows scientists to study ...

A UCLA-led study has provided an unprecedented look at how gene regulation evolves during human brain development, showing how the 3D structure of chromatin - DNA and proteins - plays a critical role.

Imagine if scientists could reach back through time and recover the genetic blueprints of species that vanished thousands of years ago, then use those ancient instructions to rebuild lost traits in ...

An animal geneticist at the University of California-Davis told Kansas cattle producers recently that a gene editing technique more common in plant genetics is also a safe option for shortening the ...

Humans love to play with their food—in fact, we’ve been doing it for thousands of years. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we explore how we’ve learned to manipulate plant genetics, from ...
