Colossal BioSciences has raised $200 million in a new round of funding to bring back extinct species like the woolly mammoth.

Researchers led by Grueber analyzed genetic data from 628 species, revealing declines even in non-threatened populations.

The time for speculating is over. We now know the roster of the debut Natural Selection Tour (NST) ski event. If you clicked on this article, you came for those names, so we’ll lead there. Keep ...

These are areas that remained ice-free during the lce Age. And more recently, natural selection (genetic changes driven by adaptation) and genetic drift (genetic changes that are random ...

More inflammation in the gut, smaller offspring “We looked at what effect a single genetic risk factor for Crohn's disease had on the microbiome of pregnant animals,” explains study leader ...

A method for genetically barcoding Drosophila is developed and used to tag defined cell populations in vivo for single-cell transcriptomics experiments and to enable multiplexed behavioral analysis.
