Why do some people feel chills when listening to music, reading poetry, or viewing a powerful work of art, while others do ...

It’s not just a mood—it’s in your blood. New research shows that your DNA determines whether you feel that "telltale tingle" ...

For more than a century, Mendelian genetics has shaped how we think about inheritance: one gene, one trait. It is a model that still echoes through textbooks—and one that is increasingly reaching its ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...

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 ...

Genome assemblies from 65 individuals, representing a variety of the world’s populations, are advancing the scientific exploration of complex genetic structural variation. Structural variations are ...

Plants can carry long-lasting genetic damage from past population crashes, leaving them more vulnerable to future environmental change.
