The Synthetic Human Genome Project (SynHG) will take decades to complete and cost anything from millions to hundreds of ...

A team of researchers is beginning work on creating new tools that could eventually lead to the synthesis of the human genome ...

Forty years after the first effort to extract mummy DNA, researchers have finally generated a full genome sequence from an ...

But the research topic is, for obvious reasons, controversial. Scientists have largely steered clear of trying to create full ...

As if sequencing a full human genome wasn't tricky enough, scientists are now attempting to reconstruct our species' genetic ...

Synthetic Human Genome Project aims to develop methods allowing scientists to not only read an entire DNA molecule but also ...

Viruses are entirely dependent on their hosts to reproduce. They ransack living cells for parts and energy and hijack the ...

The first draft of the human genome was released in 2001, but it wasn’t completed until 2022. Now, a group of scientists are looking to take that project one step further by debuting a more ...

Who really won the race to decode the human genome? Inside the cut-throat competition that pushed forward the decoding of the ...

Artificial human DNA, or synthetic DNA (synDNA), would be made without biological parents by instead using chemicals. SynHG ...
