Genomic research stands at a transformative crossroads where the exponential growth of sequencing data demands equally sophisticated analytical capabilities. According to the 1000 Genomes Project, a typical human genome differs from the reference at 4.1–5.0 million sites, with most variants being SNPs and short indels. These variants, when aggregated across individuals, contribute to differences in…
The UN climate talks COP30 have been evacuated due to a fire breaking out inside the venue in Belém, Brazil.

Our body’s “blood factory” is made of highly specialized tissue containing bone cells, nerves, blood vessels and several other cell types. Researchers have now recreated this complex network in the laboratory using only human cells, marking a first in the field. This new system could help reduce the number of animal experiments needed for many…
