Every living organism has its own genetic "blueprint": the source code for how it grows, functions and reproduces. This blueprint is known as a genome. When scientists sequence a genome, they identify ...

Haoyu Cheng, Ph.D., assistant professor of biomedical informatics and data science at Yale School of Medicine, has developed a new algorithm capable of building complete human genomes using standard ...

In A Nutshell Harvard researchers developed BrainIAC, a single AI model that can be adapted to analyze brain scans for ...

Abstract: This article presents a novel knowledge-based genetic algorithm (GA) to generate a collision-free path in complex environments. The proposed algorithm infuses specific domain knowledge into ...

Fulgent Genetics is rated Hold due to strong diagnostic revenue growth but an unproven transition into integrated precision medicine. FLGT's diagnostics business leads with rapid genome tests and ...

After decades of intense focus on genetics, the biomedical research community is undergoing a major shift, focusing on a new framework called "exposomics." Similar to the way scientists work to map ...

URBANA, Ill. – Genes are the building blocks of life, and the genetic code provides the instructions for the complex processes that make organisms function. But how and why did it come to be the way ...

For as little as $2,500, you can choose your future baby. Should you? Hosted by Ross Douthat Produced by Katherine SullivanAndrea BetanzosSophia Alvarez Boyd and Victoria Chamberlin Mr. Douthat is an ...

In a giant feat of genetic engineering, scientists have created bacteria that make proteins in a radically different way than all natural species do. By Carl Zimmer At the heart of all life is a code.

Liquid culture flasks of bacteria grown in yellow broth covered with tinfoil on a shaker. Bacterial strains needed to be tested every step of the way to create the highly compressed genome. Credit: ...
