The interdisciplinary, research-oriented Molecular & Cell Biology & Genetics program offers both MS and PhD degrees. The program provides a broad education-training program for graduate students ...

Duke’s department of biology recently decided to press pause on one of its gateway courses, Biology 203, Molecular Biology, Genetics and Evolution, reportedly due to negative student feedback on the ...

Humans have it. So does Drosophila. But not yeast. That "it" is a small pause at the start of gene activity—a brief molecular halt that may have helped life evolve from simple cells to complex animals ...

Mo Khalil is the Hok Lam and Kathleen Kam Wong Professor of Bioengineering and Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology at ...

This may be about as wildly entertaining, disruptive and philosophically profound as legitimate scientific research gets. Michael Levin's work in cellular intelligence, bioelectrical communication and ...

A new genome-wide mapping method finally shows how thousands of genes connect to drive disease. Biomedical researchers are working intensively to identify the genes that contribute to disease, with ...

Human biology is the study of all aspects of the human organism including evolution, genetics, ecology, anatomy and physiology, development, anthropology, and nutrition, among others. A deep ...

Most human genetic studies have been conducted in European populations, and the results often do not transfer well to other populations. This gap in research, particularly on the genetic basis of ...

This comprehensive e-book from The Hindu explores how gene editing tools like CRISPR and synthetic biology are fundamentally changing what it means to be human and are giving us the power to modify ...

Through genetic analysis and precision IV therapy, 10X Health and REVIV are shifting beauty standards from external fixes to ...

Obesity is not a single disease. New research shows distinct biological phenotypes that explain why weight gain and treatment ...
