23andMe, a DNA genetics testing company, recently faced a major data leak that exposed the personal information of 6.9 million customers. Hackers accessed data from 5.5 million DNA Relatives profiles and another 1.4 million Family Tree users, with some of this information sold on the dark web. The data breach at 23andMe, which occurred between […]
Scientists have uncovered a fascinating clue about a mysterious collapse of a Stone Age population that happened around 5,000 years ago, thanks to ancient DNA. This discovery sheds light on why some ancient civilizations suddenly disappeared. Researchers collected DNA samples from ancient human remains found across Europe and Asia. They analyzed these samples to understand […]
New species are discovered and go extinct all the time. Unfortunately, these events are happening at an accelerated rate, between 1,000 and 10,000 times higher than the natural extinction rate, according to the WWF website. In response to this troubling trend, zoos collect DNA samples of animals before they go extinct. Although efforts must be focused […]
Scientists are now able to collect and analyze DNA pulled from thin air, and the groundbreaking new techniques used to do it could transform the way endangered animals and natural ecosystems are studied and protected. Two groups of researchers working independently, one based in Denmark and the other in the UK and Canada, tested whether […]
The oldest family tree in the world has been reconstructed through the analysis of ancient DNA taken from a Stone Age tomb in Britain, according to a new study published recently. Researchers extracted DNA from the bones and teeth of 35 individuals buried at Hazleton North long cairn in the Cotswolds-Severn region, England. They found […]
The human story — where we come from and how we evolved — got a new chapter in 2021. Thanks to new fossil finds and analysis of ancient DNA preserved in teeth, bones, and cave dirt, scientists have unearthed startling revelations about our Homo sapien forebears, and other humans that existed before — and in […]
Scientists from UAE and the United Kingdom uncover key findings on ancestry around the Middle East Discoveries made on the impact of climate change on the genetics of populations in the region Recent rise of type-2 diabetes among Middle Eastern populations is not only down to recent shift to sedentary lifestyle, study claims A team […]
