Although there are striking differences between the cells that make up your eyes, kidneys, brain and toes, the DNA blueprint ...

Liquid biopsies are tests that detect signs of cancer through a simple blood draw. Unlike traditional biopsies, which require removing a piece of tissue, a liquid biopsy typically looks for mutations ...

A new liquid biopsy developed by researchers at the University of Chicago is offering a powerful new window into cancer’s earliest stages by flagging subtle shifts in the gut microbiome. Unlike ...

The Human Genome Project changed everything. A map of the entire human sequence of DNA was the starting point for an enormous number of discoveries, from disease genes to how humans evolved. But DNA ...

Over the past century, worldwide consumption of food-animal products such as meat, milk, and eggs has steadily grown due to increases in global population and per capita income that fuel demand for ...

Liquid biopsies have transformed cancer testing. These tests detect signs of cancer using a simple blood draw instead of removing tissue from the body. Traditional biopsies involve surgery, needles, ...

Great. Good morning, everyone. I'm Alexandra Byrne. I'm a reporter at GenomeWeb, and I will be your moderator for today's webinar. The title of today's webinar is beyond the genome: Measuring ...

Less than 2% of the genome codes for proteins; the rest, once called 'junk DNA', contains regulatory elements. Researchers ...

An understanding of the origin and dynamics of heritable genetic variation within classical animal breeding programs is needed to provide the context for understanding the contributions and concerns ...

DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body's basic components. However, building a functioning ...
