Putting thymidine dinucleotide on newborn mice's skin can delay and reduce skin cancer.
research Recent advances in Forensic DNA Phenotyping of appearance, ancestry and age
Forensic DNA Phenotyping can now better predict appearance, ancestry, and age from DNA, but more research is needed for precise police use.
research Tailored chromatin modulation to promote tissue regeneration
Understanding and manipulating epigenetic changes can potentially lead to human organ regeneration therapies, but more research is needed to improve these methods and minimize risks.
