We found that one worm can learn to avoid this pathogenic bacterium and if we grind up that worm, or even just use the media the worms are swimming in, and give that media or the crushed – worm lysate…

The human genome has not been completely sequenced and neither has any other mammalian genome as far as I’m aware”, said Harvard Medical School bioengineer George Church, who made key early advances in sequencing technology. The claim, if confirmed, surpasses…

Despite the wide diversity of life on Earth, there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet: A, T, C and G. These four molecular bases – adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine-pair with each other using hydrogen bonds to form…

Such cells produce inflammatory and anti – inflammatory molecules; the trick is getting the mix just right. That’s very satisfying and exciting here is that we have the potential to explore new treatments for brain diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s…

Researchers have found an antidote to this venom is so deadly box jellyfish can kill 60 people. Named for its cuboid shape, the Australian box jellyfish has about 60 tentacles that can grow up to 10 feet (3 m) long.…

The immune system relies on antibodies that can recognize only a single protein. “We wanted to figure out methods to graft complete, intact electronic circuits onto colloidal particles”, explains Michael Strano, the Carbon C. Dubbs Professor of Chemical Engineering at…

In January 2019, scientists in China reported the creation of five identical clonedgene-edited monkeys, using the same cloning technique that was used with Zhong Zhong and Hua Hua, and the same gene-editing Crispr-Cas9 technique allegedly used by He Jiankui in…

The function of the brain is based on the connections between nerve cells. The brains of creative people are wired differently than most, finds a new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. People hadn’t been thinking…

Even fifteen years after the human genome has been sequenced, researchers are still unsure about much of the data. Frank Jacobs of the University of Amsterdam was comparing gene expression patterns in cortical organoids grown from embryonic stem cells of…

As AIBN researcher and study researcher Dr. Abu Sina explains: “Because cancer is an extremely complicated and variable disease, it has been difficult to find a simple signature common to all cancers, yet distinct from a healthy cell” . Patients…
