In the foundational myth of Carthage that appears in Virgil’s “Aeneid,” the settlement was founded by the fugitive princess Dido, who acquired land from a local Berber ruler. Dexter Hoyos ...

Additionally, the study identified a gene-diet interaction, where high dessert and milk ... Culturally tailored educational materials in Arabic and Berber languages, incorporating local dietary habits ...

A study has shown that a dangerous game of "brinkmanship" between rival genes in mammals could help explain why many fertilized eggs don't result in a new life. Within the genome, genes can be in ...

A new computational biology pipeline has mapped out more than 13,000 groups of protein-coding genes conserved across grasses, offering a powerful tool for researchers investigating gene function ...

The segments of your DNA called genes determine nearly all your body’s characteristics and functions. “Our genes, within our chromosomes, are basically our internal computers,” explains Alan S.

By inserting an entire gene, the tool offers a one-and-done approach that overcomes hurdles from CRISPR gene editing technology—which is programmed to correct individual mutations—offering a ...
