Current genetic sequencing techniques can provide much information about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or a drop of blood. But they are unable to reveal where ...

Researchers at California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA, Stockholm University and Uppsala University are working on a smartphone-based microscope in hopes of developing a cost-effective and accessible ...

Standard genetic sequencing approaches can tell you a lot about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or drop of blood. But they don’t tell you where specific genetic ...

Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has enabled researchers to study how the DNA replication machinery assembles at sites where DNA is damaged. Cellular DNA is continuously exposed to both ...

Sep. 4—It's early in the morning and University of Montana graduate student Holli Holmes is already hip-deep in work, literally. On a smokey Aug. 10 morning, Holmes and her fellow Glacier National ...

Human DNA isn't actually entirely human. Strangely, a lot of our genetic material came from unwanted guests hitching rides in our ancestors' cells.

University of Montana graduate student Holli Holmes is changing the way Glacier Park studies waterfowl by introducing the use of environmental DNA capture techniques. (Jeremy Weber/Daily Inter Lake) ...
