New research reveals that ancient interbreeding between humans and Neanderthals shaped our modern human DNA - especially on ...

Late in 2025, we covered the development of an AI system called Evo that was trained on massive numbers of bacterial genomes. So many that, when prompted with sequences from a cluster of related genes ...

The Evo2 genomic language model can generate short genome sequences, but scientists say further advances are needed to write ...

The DNA foundation model Evo 2 has been published in the journal Nature. Trained on the DNA of over 100,000 species across ...

Growing research – including ancient DNA technology – is changing the picture of human evolution and how our ancestors interacted with other human-like creatures.View on euronews ...

When the two species got together tens of thousands of years ago, the hookups may have often involved a male Neanderthal and a female human, according to a new study. The findings, described February ...

A new cell-free genomics framework isolates the primary impacts of transcription factors and establishes tuberculosis as a model for understanding how genes are regulated.

If more human females mated with Neanderthal males than the other way around, over thousands of years you would expect to see ...

Most people with non-African ancestry carry roughly 1–4% Neanderthal ancestry spread across their genomes, a legacy of contact after modern humans expanded into Eurasia. But the X chromosome, one of ...

New research reveals that ancient interbreeding between humans and Neanderthals shaped our modern human DNA - especially on the X chromosome.

Thin stretches of the human X chromosome look oddly empty when you scan for Neanderthal DNA. Geneticists even have a name for the gaps: “Neanderthal deserts.

Human pluripotent stem-cells (HPSCs)—including human embryonic stem-cells and human induced pluripotent stem-cells—are reshaping the landscape of regenerative medicine.1,2 In Parkinson's disease, ...
