Genetics

Flies carrying disease-causing microbes will likely contaminate the food they touch, but different factors determine whether the person who eats it will get sick.

Researchers set a new world record for the fastest DNA sequencing, completing a whole genome in under four hours—a breakthrough with potential for faster, targeted care.

A series of rodent experiments showed that even with abundant food and water, personal space is essential to prevent societal collapse, but Universe 25's relevance to humans remains disputed.
