The conservation of genome regulatory elements over long periods of evolution is not limited to vertebrates, as previously ...

The molecular understanding of brain tumors has undergone a profound transformation in recent years. Advances in genomics, ...

Convergent evolution—where distinct species independently evolve similar traits or functions, such as the wings of birds and bats—has long fascinated biologists. Now, a research team led by Prof. Zou ...

The genetic underpinnings of pigmentation and colour patterning in fish encompass a complex interplay of gene regulation, cell fate determination and evolutionary innovation. Neural crest cells, which ...

The history and diversity of life on earth are testimony to evolutionary processes that extend back to the dawn of time. The agent of change and diversification is natural selection acting over long ...

Researchers published a new study, “Ongoing chromothripsis underpins osteosarcoma genome complexity and clonal evolution,” in Cell that they say solves the mystery of what drives the genomic ...
