A USB drive? Nah, an epigenetic drive! DNA data storage is coming for all of your bits (but now with an epigenetic spin)!
Longevity Cutting calories extends life, but not for the reasons you might think Would you cut 40% of your caloric intake if it meant you'd live 40% longer?

Complex genetic traits are getting taken to new heights The genetics of height gets the whole genome treatment
DNA Solving the structure of the DNA double-helix took a village History is written by victors, and that statement couldn't be more true than it is in the case of Watson and Crick's 'discovery' of the DNA double helix.
RNA Don't let highly expressed transcripts get the best of your RNA-seq dataset Whole transcriptome sequencing AKA RNA-seq: The good, the bad, the dynamic range?

Bacteria are better at math than I am Large Language Models have gotten all the AI buzz lately, but did you know that bacterial neural networks can solve computational problems now?
Transcriptomics Transcriptomes are sometimes more useful than 'whole genomes' Transcriptomes: under-appreciated, underutilized, and sometimes more useful than WGS.
DNA Linus Pauling and his DNA triple helix Linus Pauling proposed a triple helix as the structure of DNA in February 1953. Here's why he got it so wrong.

DNA Beighton and Astbury beat Gosling and Franklin to a pristine diffraction of DNA. They never shared it Elwyn Beighton and William Astbury generated a nearly flawless diffraction of B-DNA in 1951, a full year ahead of Franklin and Gosling. They never shared or published it.
Genetics Ethnic Stratification: Sounds complicated, but in genomics it helps everyone Ethnic stratification and why single reference based analysis methods aren't 'good enough.'

DNA The structure of DNA proposed by William Astbury and Florence Bell in 1938 The first 3D structure of DNA was published in 1938. It was generated by Florence Bell, a scientist you need to know.
