Doctors Francis Collins and Craig Venter discuss the completion of the human genome map.

When the Human Genome Project announced that they had completed the first human genome in 2003, it came with a catch — they weren’t actually able to put together all the genetic information ...

We mapped the human genome decades ago, but most of it is still a black box. Now, UNSW scientists have developed a tool to peer inside and what they find could reshape how we think about disease.

The previously missing pieces to the human genome could offer insights into aging, diseases such as cancer, as well as human diversity and evolution.

The deciphered DNA includes never-before-explored parts of the genome and better represents the genetic diversity of all humans.

The newly released pangenome is a more complete, inclusive set of human genetic material than had been previously created.

Complex regions of the human genome remained uncharted, even after researchers sequenced the genome in its entirety. That is, until today.

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as "junk" and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study ...

An international team of scientists a family genome sequences known as “transposable elements,” and found they play a vital role in gene expression.
