Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale ...

Genetic studies of diseases map segments of the genome driving disease. But to understand how those changes contribute to disease progression, it is important to understand how they may alter gene ...

For decades, geneticists have known that most common illnesses are not caused by a single rogue gene but by intricate constellations of DNA variants acting together in specific cells. Now a new ...

A massive study with over 6 million participants reveals genetic clusters behind 14 psychiatric disorders, opening the door to better diagnoses and treatments.

The contribution of genetics to the variability in people’s metabolism has remained largely unknown. This is, in part, because genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and ...

A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...

No gene acts alone: interacting variants and protein partnerships can worsen, mask or even rescue disease risk, demanding ...

One of the most inherent risks is the risk of damaging healthy genes. This rather brutal issue is step one of risk management. It also means large sequences of amino acids that must be checked, ...

This study abroad program is designed to explore the intersection of genetics, culture, ethics, and public policy in a global context. London and Scotland offer uniquely rich educational environments ...

The "Optical Genome Mapping Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2021-2031" has been ...
