CRISPR team harnesses new Cas12b enzyme for use in eukaryotic cells, adding to the CRISPR toolbox.

When scientists sequenced the genomes of 100 pet dogs, their results held a surprise connection to human health.

One of the big challenges in treating prostate cancer is knowing how aggressive it will be. A new computer model that predicts its progress may change that.

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes can carry deadly viruses and bite with abandon, but piecemeal genetic info has stymied research. New analysis changes that.

As the planet warms, a new study shows that the smaller the genome or cell, the better chance of survival.

As they evolved, today's budding yeasts left behind traits from their 400-million-year-old ancestory, new genomic analysis indicates.

When researchers sequenced the genome of the columbine flower, one truly bizarre chromosome gave them a big surprise.
