In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers found that the recruitment of neurons to memory circuits is preceded by a cascade of molecular events induced during learning, which ...

All it takes is a single strand of DNA to solve murder cases where the trail went cold decades ago. Genetic genealogy, which compares DNA testing with genetic databases to construct a reverse family ...

A research team co-led by the University of California, Irvine has discovered that accumulated DNA damage in the retina is a key contributor to age-related macular degeneration and that targeting ...

Researchers have discovered a DNA region that drives the activity of the telomerase gene, a gene that influences the aging of certain cell types. Researchers from Washington State University College ...

Jurors in a Beaumont murder case that went cold for nearly three decades got a first-hand look on Thursday at why the case took so long to bring to trial. Prosecutors and the defense spent the entire ...

We finally know why our DNA has an X shape. This finding by researchers at the Netherlands Cancer Institute may have much broader implications for how our cells behave. "It looks like we have ...

A research team has discovered that accumulated DNA damage in the retina is a key contributor to age-related macular degeneration and that targeting specific retinal cell types may lead to treatments ...
