Knowing how human DNA changes over generations is essential to estimating genetic disease risks and understanding how we evolved. But some of the most changeable regions of our DNA have been ...
Researchers have significantly expanded the catalogue of known human genetic variation. The resulting datasets, shared in two back-to-back publications in the journal Nature, constitute what may be ...
Processes and history : Introduction: the development of concepts in the study of human variation -- The genetic basis of evolution / Dobzhansky -- Charles Lyell / Eiseley -- Charles Darwin / Eiseley ...
PanMAN data structures compress pangenomes massively, encode evolutionary histories, and enable scalable analysis of millions of genomes.
Engineers at the University of California have developed a new data structure and compression technique that enables the field of pangenomics to handle unprecedented scales of genetic information. The ...
The warming of the Arctic is transforming not only its ice but also the genetics of its inhabitants. According to a study cited by BBC and EarthSky, polar bears are undergoing changes in their DNA ...
