The world’s polar bear population is projected to decline by two-thirds by 2050. A new study from the University of East Anglia suggests that polar bears are undergoing rapid genetic changes, and ...

A recent study on DNA microarray technology highlights its essential role in enabling high-throughput analysis of large numbers of genes through arrays of probes integrated on a solid-phase support.

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Matthew F. Erskine is a trusts and estates attorney. Imagine opening a birthday gift DNA kit and discovering you're entitled to ...

A new fluorescent sensor is giving scientists an unprecedented view of how cells respond to DNA damage, capturing the repair process as it unfolds in real time. The tool, developed at Utrecht ...

Researchers from Karolinska Institutet have discovered how mammalian cells prevent the gradual buildup of harmful mutations in mitochondrial DNA, the small but vital genome that powers every cell. The ...

“The laws of inheritance are quite unknown,” Charles Darwin acknowledged in 1859. The discovery of DNA’s shape altered how we conceived of life itself. The X-ray crystallography by Rosalind Franklin ...

Scientists found that DNA’s phosphate groups can direct chemical reactions to make the correct mirror-image form of drug molecules. This breakthrough simplifies chiral drug production, reducing waste ...

James D. Watson, whose co-discovery of the twisted-ladder structure of DNA in 1953 helped light the long fuse on a revolution in medicine, crimefighting, genealogy and ethics, has died, according to ...
