Cells use a surprising “pearling” motion to evenly distribute mitochondrial DNA. This newly uncovered process may be key to ...

Imagine a routine blood draw at your annual physical that could warn you about depression before you ever feel it coming.

Step aerobics is a low impact, high intensity workout that may help improve functional movement; in translation, make the physical tasks in your everyday life easier. While there are platforms ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

A groundbreaking gene-editing method from UT Austin is changing the game for treating complex genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis, hemophilia, and Tay Sachs. Using retrons—DNA tools borrowed from ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular ageing, cancer, ...

Step aside, outdated exercise goals. For years, 10,000 steps has been promoted by fitness trackers, health apps and medical professionals as the gold standard for daily physical activity. But if that ...

The time it takes to walk 10,000 steps will vary from person to person. It can depend on various factors, including a person’s stride length, pace, and step intensity. Older research suggests that ...

Similarly to the artistic technique of folding paper into ornate shapes, DNA origami is a self-assembling technique of precisely folding single-stranded DNA scaffolds into well-defined nanostructures.
