An AI system trained on more than 20,000 protein structures from pharmaceutical companies outperforms AlphaFold-like models that use only public data.

Transmissible tumours have been found in only a few types of animal, but there might be many more out there.

Stretching protein samples in all directions pulls molecules farther apart, allowing them to be visualized using only light microscopy.

Ancient DNA can be preserved on materials from archaeological floor deposits such as bones, sediments and artifacts. Here, the authors investigate whether Palaeolithic wall art can preserve human DNA ...

A bit of news: After nearly 9 years, I have decided to leave Google DeepMind and join Anthropic (after taking some time to recharge). I am incredibly grateful for my time at GDM. @demishassabis took a...

The idea that modern humans inherited DNA from Neanderthal ancestors is one of the 21st century’s most celebrated discoveries in evolution. It may not be that simple.

The database of 200 million protein-structure predictions now includes homodimers, adding new biological relevance.

The Evo2 genomic language model can generate short genome sequences, but scientists say further advances are needed to write genomes that will work inside living cells.

After 150,000 articles and 17 million genome sequences, what has science taught us about SARS-CoV-2?

The human genome encodes potentially thousands of tiny proteins that were previously overlooked. The search is on to find out what they do.

Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun identified a class of tiny molecules that have a crucial role in controlling gene expression.
