A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...

A team of researchers has generated one of the most detailed 3D maps of human chromosomes, cataloging over 140,000 DNA looping interactions.

After 10 years, members of the 4D Nucleome consortium have successfully completed the first phase of a project that aims to ...

A deeper understanding of how DNA changes over generations helps scientists learn why people differ and how diseases develop. Until recently, many fast-changing parts of the human genome remained ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic ...

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 ...

More than a decade after the first Neanderthal genome was sequenced, scientists are still working to understand how ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...

Buried in the desert for roughly 4,500 years, the skeleton of a single Egyptian man has yielded a complete genome that ...
