Increasing paternal age has been linked to elevated health risks for the next generation, including higher risks of obesity ...

The so-called ticking biological clock has been framed largely as a concern for women. We talk about egg freezing, ovarian ...

Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...

Key opportunities lie in next-generation sequencing methods, with hospitals as major end-users and North America as a ...

Years of experiments and databases filled with RNA-seq results belie the simple reality that, until fairly recently, it was impossible to analyze RNA directly. The RNA-seq studies performed with ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common adult-onset form of ...

UNDATED (WKRC) - Researchers claim they have developed a process that can detect and identify nearly any infectious agent in a patient with just a single test. A new study from Nature Medicine ...

RNA sequencing has emerged as a powerful supplement to DNA sequencing for Mendelian disease diagnosis, but clinical translation of diagnostic RNA-seq has not been widely achieved. Researchers at ...

RNA sequence design and inverse folding constitute pivotal areas in computational biology, aiming to identify nucleotide sequences that adopt predetermined structural conformations. The inverse ...

An individual’s genome is identifiable. But datasets of RNA sequences from single cells are like a blurry photocopy of the genome. The sequence numbers are small, the data are noisy, and the sequences ...
