Rerunning tumour evolution in mice shows how cancer develops after DNA damage and reveals that background genetics and acquired mutations interact to shape genome stability and selection. This ...

A new Yale study provides a fuller picture of the genetic changes that shaped the evolution of the human brain, and how the process differed from the evolution of chimpanzees. For the study, published ...

Some colorful lizards and a mathematical formula from the finance sector have been used to build a new framework to model evolution. Developed by Dr. Simone Blomberg from The University of ...

A just-published article in the journal Nature—“Ancient DNA reveals pervasive directional selection across West Eurasia,” (Akbari et al, 15 April 2026)—describes how the development of agriculture in ...

Germline genetic background dictates oncogenic driver choice and tumor evolution. Read more to discover how inheritance impacts cancer.

MILAN — Is chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) progression primarily driven by genetic mutations or by external cues from the tumor microenvironment? Despite major strides in targeted therapies, CLL ...

Modern humans descended from not one, but at least two ancestral populations that drifted apart and later reconnected, long before modern humans spread across the globe. Using advanced analysis based ...

As an evolutionary geneticist, Noor has made several key discoveries using Drosophila, but his science communication work, via books and sci-fi cruises, is just as interesting. Fourteen years later, ...
