Research traces the evolution of a gene variant that reduces the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, finding that it originally evolved in response to infectious bacteria.

Ten years ago, scientists put DNA barcodes in AAV vectors, creating an approach that simplified, expedited, and streamlined AAV screening. 

Scientists hoping to treat immunodeficiencies using gene therapy have found a way to edit stem cells in mice without disrupting gene regulation.

Drawing inspiration from nature, synthetic biology offers exciting opportunities to transform the future of medicine.

With deep learning methods revolutionizing life sciences, researchers bet on de novo proteins and cell mapping models to deliver customized precision medicines.

Researchers generated complete genomes of two important bat species and explored their immune- and cancer-related genes.

Scientists around the world investigate how bat immune systems cope with viral attacks and how this information could be used to keep humans safe.

Animals with human cells could provide donor organs or help us understand neuropsychiatric disorders.
