Tunisia Could Have Been the Birthplace of Today’s Domestic Cats, Reveals New Origin Study
The studies surrounding the origin of humans’ most friendly creature, cats, mark back to North Africa. Post-domestication, the cats probably moved to Europe, a new study reveals. The creatures also possess a history of religious and traditional beliefs among Egyptians and Greeks.

Ancient Europeans Retained Dark Skin, Hair and Eyes Until the Iron Age, Claims New Study
A genetic study analysing 348 ancient DNA samples reveals that most prehistoric Europeans had dark skin, hair, and eyes well into the Iron Age. Although genes for lighter pigmentation appeared around 14,000 years ago, they remained rare until about 3,000 years ago. Lighter skin may have been advantageous for vitamin D production, while lighter eyes...

New DNA Analysis Sheds Light on Post-Roman Migration and Anglo-Saxon Influence in Britain
A groundbreaking DNA technique, known as Twigstats, is helping to unlock new insights into Britain's history. Researchers are studying human remains to understand the migration and interactions of populations after the Romans left. This innovative method is already shedding light on significant periods such as the Anglo-Saxon invasion and Viking ex...

New Study Finds Selfish DNA (LINE-1) is Essential for Early Human Embryo Development
Recent research has shed light on how "selfish DNA," particularly LINE-1 transposons, plays a key role in early human development. Once viewed primarily as harmful, these elements have now been found to be essential for the normal formation and specialisation of cells during the embryo's early stages. Blocking their activity causes developmental di...

Groundbreaking DNA Test Targets 18 Early-Stage Cancers Across Major Organs
Scientists have developed a new DNA test that could detect 18 different types of early-stage cancers in a concept study representing all the major organs of the human body.

New Study Reveals How Much Neanderthal DNA Still Exists In Modern Humans
Recent scientific findings have revealed that Neanderthal genes compose 1 to 4 per cent of the genome of modern-day humans whose ancestors moved out of Africa.

Stress Increases Our Biological Age But It Can Be Restored: Study
In addition to measuring how biological age varies in response to stress in animal models and human datasets, this new study also discovers that stress-induced ageing surges may simply be a temporary phenomenon.

Study Tracks 155 New Genes, Claims Humans Are Still Evolving
The scientists found that some of the newly-discovered genes can be tracked all the way back to the earliest days of mammals.

Environmental Factors Can Affect Onset Of Puberty : Study
Apart from genes, environment and lifestyle factors that lead to chemical modifications of human genes can also influence a child's pubertal timing, a new study has found.

Neanderthals And Humans Interbred 100,000 Years Ago: Study
Neanderthals may have been mating with modern humans 100,000 years ago, tens of thousands of years earlier than previously thought, a new study based on several different methods of DNA analysis has found.
