The gene is involved in the translation of proteins from RNA and in the proliferation and migration of neurons in the brain.

Using a computational technique that accounts for how genes interact, scientists revealed genes that may be related to autism spectrum disorder, many of which are also implicated in cancer.

Researchers have used genome editing technology to reveal the role of a key gene in human embryos in the first few days of development.

Researchers have not only untangled an unusual wiring system that cancer cells use for carbohydrate metabolism, but also identified a natural compound that appears to selectively shut down this system in laboratory studies.

Scientists are a step closer to resolving a related head-scratcher, how do these frogs keep from poisoning themselves?

Unchained Labs, the life sciences company that’s all about getting biologics researchers the right tool for the job, released its LEA 9 software, making Freeslate and Junior automation systems way more accessible.
