HUMAN eggs have been created in a lab for the first time in a breakthrough that could one day beat female infertility. Scientists injected DNA from a woman’s skin cell into an empty donor egg, ...

DNA computers can use biological material to perform mathematical functions and store information, but their power sources have been fragile. Researchers now say they’ve developed a reliable source: ...

Though it might seem like science fiction, scientists are working to build nanoscale molecular machines that can be designed for myriad applications, such as "smart" medicines and materials. But like ...

Since Madeline Lancaster first created brain organoids back in 2013, they have become widely used for brain research around the world. But what exactly are they? Are they effectively miniature brains ...

Research suggests that ancient viral-DNA embedded in the human genome is playing a key role in early embryo development. Around 8% of our genome consists of endogenous retrovirus DNA — the remnants of ...
