Genetic engineering is moving from the lab bench into clinics, farms, and even family planning decisions, promising to change how we prevent disease, age, and define human potential. The same tools ...

Why do GLP-1 drugs work better for some people than others? This large genetic study suggests inherited differences in drug-target genes may shape both weight-loss success and the risk of nausea and ...

Currently, there are several hypotheses surrounding the disappearance of Neanderthals. While they all have at least some scientific support, researchers can't agree on which—or which combination—is ...

Genetic engineering in non-human primates has been challenged by the limitations of virus-based gene delivery methods. Recently, researchers in Japan successfully used a nonviral system to introduce a ...
