The Age of AI will rely on massive volumes of data that can be easily stored and retrieved—and bioscience may have an ingenious solution.

By making the world's microbial DNA easier to explore, LexicMap helps researchers track outbreaks, study antibiotic resistance, and understand ...

In about one out of every 800 people, two chromosomes fuse together to form an unusual bond. These are known as Robertsonian chromosomes. It's a mystery that has long stumped scientists.

Background Molecular genetic diagnoses are critical to prevention and treatment of inherited polyposis and colorectal cancer.
