The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science has developed an ultrasensitive immunoassay-based analytical platform that can detect and quantify trace amounts of "Small Excised Damaged DNA ...
What if the mechanical properties of a cell could be programmed like the components of a machine? Researchers at the ...
Newborn mice neurons can snap both DNA strands to migrate, then repair the breaks within a day. The process may be a normal ...
A tiny set of ancient genetic “switches” may have played a surprisingly large role in making human language possible. Researchers found that these DNA regions, which act like volume controls for genes ...
Silver nanoparticles provide a more efficient way to cut and assemble DNA, improving recovery rates and boosting DNA joining ...
How diseases develop and how the body ages can differ between females and males, but the biological reasons for these differences are not fully understood. Researchers are studying the role of sex ...
Many repetitive regions of the genome have been considered "junk DNA" because the available technologies did not allow them to be studied at sufficient resolution. This is the case for the SST1/NBL2 ...
You can listen to more articles from The Conversation, narrated by Noa, here. Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed what they describe as a fundamentally new type of vaccine using ...
A tiny portion of the human genome may have had a surprisingly large impact on our ability to develop language. New research suggests these genetic sequences were already present before modern humans ...
Die Natur erklären wir, das Seelenleben verstehen wir [Nature we explain, but psychic life we understand] ― Wilhelm Dilthey, 1894 When I first started studying psychology, I noticed there were two ...
