The human genome, an intricate tapestry of genetic information for life, has proven to be a treasure trove of strange features. Among them are segments of DNA that can “jump around” and move within ...

Ancient DNA is telling us more and more about humans and environments long past. Could it also help rescue the future? Eske Willerslev was on a tour of Montreal’s Redpath Museum, a Victorian-era ...

In a novel study, researchers introduced LoGoFunc, an advanced computational tool that predicts pathogenic gain- and loss-of-function variants across the genome. Unlike current methods that ...

“The award is not just a personal honor but a testament to the collaborative research environment at CEU and the invaluable contributions of my colleagues and students,” Battiston said. His innovative ...

LoGoFunc identifies harmful (left) and harmless (right) genetic variations in the Vasopressin V2 receptor protein using a structure predicted by AlphaFold2. This helps explain how genetic changes ...
