Structural variations (SVs)—large-scale changes in DNA sequence—play a crucial role in shaping traits such as yield, quality, and environmental adaptation in crops.

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, and ...

Researchers have uncovered nearly 150 hidden DNA “switches” inside brain support cells that control the activity of genes ...

Check out the code for this video, which explores Genetic Algorithms (GA).

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases. Until now, the genetic basis ...

Developers are navigating confusing gaps between expectation and reality. So are the rest of us. Depending who you ask, AI-powered coding is either giving software developers an unprecedented ...

Uncovering complex disease patterns from large-scale, heterogeneous health data remains a significant challenge. Traditional statistical methods and conventional machine learning algorithms often ...

EMBL researchers created SDR-seq, a next-generation tool that decodes both DNA and RNA from the same cell. It finally opens access to non-coding regions, where most disease-associated genetic variants ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

A key question in artificial intelligence is how often models go beyond just regurgitating and remixing what they have learned and produce truly novel ideas or insights. A new project from Google ...

Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania (Penn Medicine) have successfully employed an algorithm to identify ...
