The human genome consists of 3 billion base pairs, and when a cell divides, it takes about seven hours to complete making a copy of its DNA. That's almost 120,000 base pairs per second. At that ...

Caffeine does more than energize—it helps your cells repair DNA, even under heavy stress. New research shows daily coffee activates survival pathways that may fight aging and physical decline. Drink ...

For decades, the dream of fixing harmful mutations in mitochondrial DNA felt out of reach. Scientists have long known these mutations cause serious diseases that pass down only through mothers. They ...

Sun damage is caused by UV rays that you can protect against. Some of us choose to allow sun damage either by not wearing protection on a daily basis (despite the recommendation to wear SPF every day ...
