If you replay arguments long after they end, your brain may be seeking reward, not resolution. Here’s how dopamine shapes ...

R loops consist of RNA–DNA hybrids that accumulate at preferred regions all over the genome, such as pericentromeric DNA, telomeres, ribosomal DNA or transcription termination regions. R loops are an ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...

Even if it turns out that time loops never take shape, studying them provides key insights into the deepest rules of reality.

A game-changining achievement in genome science has identified over 140,000 distinct DNA loops in our cells, providing chromosome fold resolution that is among the best ever created. In this ongoing ...

Because I find it hard to relate to something as small as the structure of the human genome, I like to imagine it scaled up a millionfold. At this size, each DNA molecule—a chromosome—is as wide as a ...

Feedback loops play an important role in all aspects of life. Basic human physiology, for example, relies on feedback to maintain a safe environment. Feedback loops influence our behavior, and many ...

I’ve seen photos of actor Jacob Elordi (currently appearing in the latest “Frankenstein” movie) and other men (famous and not famous) wearing pants with belt ...
