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 ...

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 ...

Every living thing has DNA, the blueprint for life. These genetic blueprints separate us as species and, further, as individuals. The human genome — the complete set of DNA found in all humans — is ...

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 ...

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 ...

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) ...
