Human genome editing historically has allowed for precise alterations of single base pairs by excising or inserting new sequences at a single location along the DNA strand. However, conventional gene ...

While other herpes viruses have been seen compacting and reshaping host chromosomes, it was unclear whether it was a side effect of the virus invading and setting up its own viral replication ...

Enter the digital human. Rapid progress in computer graphics, coupled with advances in AI, is putting humanlike faces on chatbots and other computer-based interfaces.

Researchers could scan a genome for protein-coding genes, even if they had never seen the protein before. Scanning the human genome led to the discovery of 20,000 genes.

Officers were called to the area where Commonwealth Boulevard and Market Drive intersect at 1:45 p.m. after someone found what they believed were human remains, Emporia Police Chief Troy Hawkins said.
