For decades, biologists have known that the instructions for life are written in DNA, yet the vast majority of those letters seemed to sit in the dark, doing little that was obvious. Now a new ...

Trained on 9 trillion DNA base pairs from every domain of life, the Evo 2 model can predict disease-causing mutations, identify genomic features and generate entirely new genetic sequences.

An international team of researchers has taken an important step toward understanding how gene expression is controlled across the human genome. The research is published in the journal Nature. The ...

A portion of our genome that was once dismissed as being “junk” may actually play an important role in regulating gene expression, new research suggests. According to the work of an international team ...

Scientists have developed Evo 2, a powerful AI model that can analyze and generate DNA sequences across all domains of life.

Artificial intelligence has gotten a bad reputation lately, and often for good reason. But a team of scientists at Google’s DeepMind now claims to have found a revolutionary use case for AI: helping ...
