The DNA foundation model Evo 2 has been published in the journal Nature. Trained on the DNA of over 100,000 species across ...

Scientists at UC Berkeley have discovered a microbe that bends one of biology’s most sacred rules. Instead of treating a specific three-letter DNA code as a clear “stop” signal, this methane-producing ...

Trained on 9 trillion DNA base pairs from every domain of life, the Evo 2 model can predict disease-causing mutations, identify genomic features and generate entirely new genetic sequences.

Plants are fast-tracking their own evolution by "plugging in" genetic code stolen from their neighbors, according to new research that reveals the secret to their own successful genetic engineering.

A high-fat diet can cause the intestinal lining to weaken, allowing live gut bacteria to travel directly to the brain in mice ...

The DNA foundation model Evo 2, first released in February 2025 as a preprint, is now published in the journal Nature.

Snakes have lost the gene that encodes ghrelin, a hormone that helps regulate hunger in many vertebrates, according to a new study.

Scientists have developed Evo 2, a powerful AI model that can analyze and generate DNA sequences across all domains of life.

I found it interesting to read about the lives of twins on campus. I and my identical twin brother, Stephen Margulis ’78 MD’81 both attended Brown University during the nascent period of the Program ...

Inside the growing scientific quest to understand what creatures with the extraordinary ability to defy the ravages of time can teach us about making human aging better.

Crystal jellyfish have an eerie beauty: thanks to a natural protein, they emit a faint green glow. For decades, researchers ...
