Diseases like cancer or neurodegeneration are known to arise from genetic misfires. But treating such complex conditions hasn ...

A new study suggests that the long-standing Mendelian view of genetics has some blind spots.

A new study published in Genome Research presents an interpretable artificial intelligence framework that improves both the accuracy and transparency of genomic prediction, a key challenge in fields ...

Researchers have uncovered the origins and genetic diversity of the Fulani, one of Africa's largest pastoral populations. The study reveals a complex genetic ancestry with influences from both North ...

Genome assemblies from 65 individuals, representing a variety of the world’s populations, are advancing the scientific exploration of complex genetic structural variation. Structural variations are ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...

The Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse resource has emerged as an indispensable platform for elucidating the genetic basis of complex traits. By combining high levels of genetic diversity from eight ...

Improving the genetic circuits in eukaryotic protein production systems—like human cell lines or Chinese hamster ovaries—has the potential to enhance their value so they may offer not only their own ...

A large-scale genetic analysis of East Asian individuals led by Fuu-Jen Tsai of the China Medical University Hospital, finds that people with greater height face a higher risk of endometriosis and ...

A collaboration including Rice University, Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children’s Hospital’s Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute (NRI) has produced a breakthrough in how to ...

It’s estimated that one in four adults will suffer from some type of anxiety disorder at some point, such as phobias of specific things; generalized anxiety that affects people over a long period of ...
