Grow a Garden is a self-explanatory experience on the Roblox platform. You get a plot where you can start growing your garden using various seeds, including Mythic ones. While the same is simple, it ...

Scientists developed Evo 2, a large biological foundation model trained on about 9 trillion DNA base pairs that can analyse ...

Late in 2025, we covered the development of an AI system called Evo that was trained on massive numbers of bacterial genomes. So many that, when prompted with sequences from a cluster of related genes ...

The DNA foundation model Evo 2 has been published in the journal Nature. Trained on the DNA of over 100,000 species across ...

Researchers have made DNA storage rewritable, overcoming one of its biggest limitations. The breakthrough could turn DNA into a practical alternative to today’s energy-hungry data centers.

Megan Molteni reports on discoveries from the frontiers of genomic medicine, neuroscience, and reproductive tech. She joined STAT in 2021 after covering health and science at WIRED. You can reach ...

EXCLUSIVE: The Trump administration is firing back at a Democratic Bronx congressman who offered a new-age way for civilians to identify immigration enforcement agents who obscure their identity with ...

A 14,400-year-old wolf puppy’s last meal is shedding light on the last days of one of the Ice Age’s most iconic megafauna species, the woolly rhinoceros. When researchers dissected the frozen ...

There are few hard and fast rules in the study of life, but perhaps the closest we get is the central dogma of molecular biology: DNA is transcribed to RNA, which gets translated into proteins. The ...

Audiences have also been embracing “Alien: Earth,” leading to Disney/FX/Hulu to announce that Hawley’s series (set years before the events of Scott’s original “Alien“) would be getting a second season ...
