When couples have trouble conceiving a baby or lose a pregnancy, they often undergo routine tests, which can turn up a shock: ...

More work needs to be done to create viable human embryos, but the method might someday be used in IVF to help infertile people and male couples.

The lab-generated eggs could be fertilized with sperm, but were riddled with chromosomal abnormalities. Most embryos stopped ...

Here, biology kind of takes over. If the phage genome that the AI model generated is legit, the proteins will start to self-assemble into a phage. You’ll know it’s worked when that phage goes on to ...

Scientists created the eggs using DNA from adult skin cells, a step that could someday potentially lead to new ways to treat infertility and enable gay couples to have genetically related children.

Scientists are working to create human eggs in a laboratory dish, but the process is proving to be more challenging than ...

Due to their repetitive and complex DNA sequences, centromeres have been viewed as the "black boxes" of the genome for decades. Often overlooked in sequencing projects but playing a critical role in ...

From cancer biology to proactive health management, customized care is changing patient outcomes, but what are the costs and ...

Every season, scientists from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) go on field trips to the Pyrenees. Their ...

A USC-led study shows that using the wrong reference genome can dramatically skew genetic insights. For gray foxes, mapping ...
