A breast cancer diagnosis can be especially scary for Black women. While we develop breast cancer less often than white women, they are more likely to die from it. A new study suggests that DNA could be the key to curbing racial disparities in breast cancer survival.

People who have been apprehended by federal agents at immigration protests and on their way to way work say they had samples of their DNA taken.

Hidden within fish DNA are powerful genetic twists that may explain one of nature’s biggest mysteries: how new species form so quickly. In Lake Malawi, hundreds of cichlid fish species evolved at lightning speed,

A 60-year-old cold case murder of a San Rafael banker's wife has been closed, thanks to help from advanced DNA technology.

New research has discovered that the molecular machines responsible for copying our DNA have a surprising hidden talent—an ability to create entirely new and highly sophisticated DNA sequences from scratch.

Scientists have uncovered a surprising secret about our DNA: it’s not a static blueprint, but a constantly shifting, folding structure that helps control how genes turn on and off. Researchers at the Salk Institute found that different parts of the genome loop and unloop at different speeds,
