Scientists at Google DeepMind —the company’s artificial intelligence research arm—say they’ve created an A.I. tool that can ...

Artificial intelligence has gotten a bad reputation lately, and often for good reason. But a team of scientists at Google’s ...

Google DeepMind released AlphaGenome on January 28, an AI model that predicts how DNA sequences translate into biological functions, processing up to one million base-pairs at once and outperforming ...

Google unveiled an artificial intelligence tool Wednesday that its scientists said would help unravel the mysteries of the ...

It could transform our understanding of why diseases develop and the medicines needed to treat them, says researchers.

In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

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 have pinpointed precise regions in the human genome where DNA is most likely to develop a mutation. At spots where RNA polymerase 'opens' your DNA to read and copy instructions – known as ...

The human genome is made up of 23 pairs of chromosomes, the biological blueprints that make humans … well, human. But it turns out that some of our DNA — about 8% — are the remnants of ancient viruses ...

Researchers have used a new human reference genome, which includes many duplicated and repeat sequences left out of the original human genome draft, to identify genes that make the human brain ...
