Proteins that appear before patients show symptoms of the disease could offer clues to the disease process.
Scientists have found a way to reactivate a gene in mice that is silenced in a neurodevelopmental disorder called Angelman syndrome.
For honeybees, there’s no place like home. And every year, they must find a new one. Now, a study publishing today (December 8) in Science suggests that the honeybee swarms use inhibitory signals when house-hunting, paralleling the human brain’s deci

Gene expression controlled from afar may have spurred the spurt in brain evolution that led to modern humans.
Scientists are beginning to discover myriad strategies tumors use to avoid attacks by anti-cancer drugs.
