The visible effects of ageing on our body are in part linked to invisible changes in gene activity. The epigenetic process of DNA methylation — the addition or removal of tags called methyl groups — ...

Innovative study of DNA’s hidden structures may open up new approaches for treatment and diagnosis of diseases, including cancer. DNA is well-known for its double helix shape. But the human genome ...

For over six centuries, the Shroud of Turin has been a cherished Christian artifact. Millions have gazed upon this faint image of a crucified man, seeing the burial cloth of Jesus of Nazareth, while ...
