Scientists combined genetics and fractal theory to analyze these branching heart structures.

Research from scientists at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine has shed new light on an age-old ...

People with Indigenous American ancestry carry Denisovan genes that Neanderthals passed on when they mated with modern humans ...

Experts have uncovered traces of a mysterious ancient human population in Colombia that once lived there. The South American country of Colombia, located in the north of the continent, is based upon ...

Noonan’s lab is focused on understanding how HAR s contribute to the evolution of uniquely human brain features. In previous work the team has shown that some HAR s alter gene expression in ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic ...

Thus, we make mistakes. For instance, let us assume that through mapping the human genome, we can identify the genetic markers for Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD).

Meanwhile, a team of scientists, including the creator of the world's first mammal cloned from an adult, have detailed what obstacles remain before human cloning — for any purpose — can even ...
