Wheat has a very large and complex genome. Researchers have found that different varieties can use their genes in different ways. By studying RNA—the molecules that carry out instructions from ...

Using fruit flies as a model species, researchers will study how individual differences in genetic background and diet can influence susceptibility to metabolic diseases.

MIT researchers have dramatically lowered the error rate of prime editing, a technique with promise for treating numerous genetic disorders. A genome editing method called prime editing could one day ...

Stanford scientists found that aging disrupts the brain’s internal navigation system in mice, mirroring spatial memory ...
