Researchers developed two computational tools to decode how cells communicate in tissues. sCCIgen creates realistic virtual ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published in Nature. Chromosomes are thread-like structures that carry a cell's ...

Researchers have released TripletDGC, a publicly available resource that links nearly 10,000 disease-associated genes to the specific cell types they most strongly affect, filling a critical gap in ...

For decades, geneticists have known that most common illnesses are not caused by a single rogue gene but by intricate constellations of DNA variants acting together in specific cells. Now a new ...

Andrea Califano, PhD, professor of chemical and systems biology at Columbia University, encourages an artificial intelligence (AI) approach to cancer immunotherapy, where AI models predict the genes ...

Human gene maps contain major blind spots because they were built largely from the DNA sequences of people with European ancestry, according to a study published today in Nature Communications.
