Scientists are using machine learning to identify important sequences of DNA within the mosquito genome that regulate how the insect’s cells develop and behave. The research project, funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), could have implications for disease control, potentially facilitating efforts to use genetic engineering to control mosquito populations, or to create […]
