Scientists have identified extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) as a key factor in how tumors evolve and resist chemotherapy. These circular DNA fragments carry oncogenes and replicate independently, allowing cancer cells to…
Researchers from the Arc Institute and Stanford University have developed Evo, a genomic foundation model capable of predicting and designing DNA, RNA, and protein sequences. Using a novel architecture called…
A global research team has identified "Obelisks," a new class of viroid-like genetic entities found in the human gut and mouth. These circular RNA structures are distinct from known viruses…
Stanford University researchers have developed Quiet-STaR, a method that allows AI models to generate internal rationales before responding. This technique significantly improves the logical reasoning and mathematical capabilities of large…
