Scientists have just discovered an entirely new way that DNA can be synthesized. The business of constructing DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, to give it its full name) usually requires a template that builder proteins called enzymes can work from.

The work demonstrates the power of ancient DNA to illuminate human biology and medicine in addition to history. A massive study of ancient DNA from nearly 16,000 people across more than 10,000 years in West Eurasia reveals that natural selection has shaped modern human genomes far more than previously thought.

A remarkable genetic breakthrough has uncovered what may be one of the clearest snapshots yet of a Neanderthal “community” living together 100,000 years ago in what is now Poland. The findings reveal that these individuals shared genetic ties with Neanderthals spread across Europe and the Caucasus,

With a few chemical tweaks and some dutiful protein partners, a new biotech from Flagship Pioneering thinks it has cracked the code to turn DNA into a brand-new class of therapeutics. | With a few chemical tweaks and some dutiful protein partners,

It’s not the first time McCaffrey’s faced murder charges. He was charged with his missing wife’s murder in 2018 but a jury did not indict him. Instead, he was later convicted on obstruction charges in his wife’s disappearance and sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Research of the human genome has revealed an odd hidden code in our DNA. Ancient Astronaut Theorists believe this could be evidence of alien manipulation, in this scene from Season 13, "The Artificial Human.

Detectives used a clever gum ruse to collect DNA from Mitchell Gaff, who pleaded guilty to two decades-old cold case murders in Snohomish County court.

Parrots captured in the Amazon rainforest by pre-Inca people were transported hundreds of miles over the Andes to coastal Peru where they were kept for their colorful feathers.
