Researchers find that about 60 lncRNA genes in mammals – or 2% to 3% of lncRNAs shared by humans and other mammalian species – appear to be derived from ancestral, protein-coding genes.

EPFL scientists have now found metabolic differences between hepatoblastoma subtypes, and identified several biomarkers that can help obtain more accurate subtyping of the disease.

The new study links life-span to the epigenetic clock, and demonstrates that this clock is a useful biomarker to study aging.

A sophisticated mechanism that allows plant roots to quickly respond to changes in soil conditions has been identified by an international research team.

Researchers at the Helmholtz Zentrum München have developed a new method for reconstructing continuous biological processes, such as disease progression, using image data.

A Northeastern research team has developed new technology that optimizes DNA sequencing using nanophysics and electric currents.
