DNA from skeletons fills in gaps in our understanding of the genetic makeup of ancient Rome's population, researchers say.

When combined with DNA identification, dogs trained to sniff out the scat of endangered lizards could offer a new noninvasive way to protect them.

For DNA repair, proteins build a relatively huge scaffold around the fracture.The proportions are roughly that of "a basketball and a pin head."

Malicious users could use a site called GEDmatch to get your genetic identity and use it to impersonate family.

A new method that delivers DNA directly into immune cells could help solve some of the problems with immunotherapy cancer treatments.

Some cancer cells get the energy they need to survive chemotherapy by going cannibal and chowing down on neighboring tumor cells.

Using CRISPR to correct mutated muscle stem cells in mice may pave the way for lifelong treatments for people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Proteomics, a new forensics tool, means "reading DNA when you don't have any DNA to read." Here's how the technique works.

A new method is letting researchers get at the ancient proteins preserved in a rhino tooth fossil from almost 2 million years ago.

"...these are for-profit companies and ultimately their responsibility is to maximize their profits, not to protect your privacy," says law professor Erin Murphy.
