UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — A new genome-wide study uncovers evidence of the first three-way relationships between human genetic variation, variation in the fungal component of the human microbiome — known ...

Genetic research does not always produce tidy answers. Sometimes it reveals traces that raise more questions than they settle. In recent years, scientists studying human DNA identified genetic signals ...

New research from UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center has uncovered an evolutionary change that may explain why certain immune cells in humans are less effective at fighting solid tumors compared to ...

Several genetic variants associated with social behavior in honey bees are located within genes that have previously been linked to social behavior in humans, Ian Traniello at the University of ...

Anyone who has ever sobbed into a golden retriever’s neck already suspected this. Now, research says humans and goldens literally share pieces of the same emotional wiring. A new genetics study ...

Horses have played a critical role in shaping human society, but scientists are still piecing together the story of their domestication. Reading time 3 minutes Roughly 4,500 years ago, humans forged a ...

An algorithm scanned 78 million genetic variants and found patterns that shouldn't exist. Most human DNA tells a familiar story—but some of it defies explanation. Researchers discovered genetic ...

Two small changes in human DNA may have played a big role in helping our ancestors walk upright, researchers say. The study, recently published in the journal Nature, found that these tweaks changed ...
