Genetic algorithms (GAs) have emerged as a powerful optimisation tool in product design and user-centred engineering, drawing inspiration from the principles of biological evolution. They use ...

For the last few years or so, the story in the artificial intelligence that was accepted without question was that all of the big names in the field needed more compute, more resources, more energy, ...

Researchers at the Wellcome Sanger Institute used prime editing to develop a novel tool to predict the chances of successfully inserting a gene-edited sequence of DNA into the genome of a cell. An ...

A Stanford-led study published in Nature on Feb. 26 found that age-related changes witnessed in diseases like Alzheimer’s may be related to a relatively untapped area of research in the brain. The ...

Genetics control behavioral sequences that are building blocks for complex behavior patterns. Mice scurry around while foraging for food, but genetics may be the unseen hand controlling these ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a suite of algorithms to automate the counting of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) in chromosomes under the microscope. Conventional ...
