An engineering researcher at RIT has discovered the means to process data using DNA. Their biocomputing design is a breakthrough that builds on innovative DNA engineering and computing system advances ...

DNA repair is essential for the maintenance of genomic stability and its failure can lead to human disease. Various DNA repair systems exist, such as base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, ...

DNA is the language of life, and DNA sequencing has allowed us to dive into the genetic code that evolved over the last 3.5 billion years. As sequencing has become faster and cheaper, the scale of ...

The 1950s are widely recognized as one of the most important decades in biology. This is, in large part, due to the discovery of the structure of DNA and the launch of the field of molecular biology.

In the last decade, archaeologists have learned to read the genetic traces that ancient humans and Neanderthals left not only in bones, but in the dirt beneath their feet. By treating cave sediments ...
