Researchers have revealed that so-called “junk DNA” contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to ...

The human mind is turning out to be far stranger and more intricate than the tidy diagrams in old biology textbooks ever ...

Researchers have identified elusive DNA switches in brain support cells that influence genes tied to Alzheimer’s disease. When people think about DNA, they often picture genes that determine our ...

From influencing weight gain to supporting immune function, gut microbes do far more than digest food. They may even explain ...

But only a tiny percentage of our DNA – around 2% – contains our 20,000-odd genes. The remaining 98% – long known as the non-coding genome, or so-called ‘junk’ DNA – includes many of the switches that ...

When most of us think of DNA, we have a vague idea it's made up of genes that give us our physical features, our behavioral ...

The race to understand the brain has just crossed a new threshold, with a supercomputer-driven model that behaves less like a ...

This potentially valuable cross-sectional longitudinal study leverages high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to examine its effect on ...
