Veronica Paulus is a former STAT intern supported by the Harvard University Institute of Politics. Complex regions of the human genome remained uncharted, even after researchers sequenced the genome ...
The human genome is made up of 23 pairs of chromosomes, the biological blueprints that make humans … well, human. But it turns out that some of our DNA — about 8% — are the remnants of ancient viruses ...
NIH funding has allowed scientists to see the DNA blueprints of human life—completely. In 2022, the Telomere-to-Telomere Consortium, a group of NIH-funded scientists from research institutions around ...
CRISPR functions as a programmable genetic memory system derived from bacterial immune defenses against viral infections. Guide RNA allows for rapid multiplexed targeting compared to older ...
The history of genomics has long been a story of reading a book where only every fiftieth page made sense. While the Human Genome Project gave us the full sequence of human DNA over two decades ago, ...
The promise of genome editing to help understand human diseases and create new therapies is vast, but technological limitations have limited advancement of the field. While existing editing ...
A team of UK-based researchers is going where no scientist has dared to go—writing artificial human DNA from scratch. They’re hoping the project will answer fundamental questions about the human ...
Today, genomics is saving countless lives and even entire species, thanks in large part to a commitment to collaborative and open science that the Human Genome Project helped promote. Twenty-five ...
