UCLA Health researchers have created a comprehensive map showing how eight different genetic mutations associated with autism spectrum disorder affect early brain development, providing new insights ...

AlphaGenome can analyse up to 1m letters of DNA code at once and could pave way for new treatments ...

A new study published in Nature in the paper, “Developmental convergence and divergence in human stem cell models of autism,” provides new insights by demonstrating that while different mutations ...

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

Sometimes, a small error in the sequence of DNA can lead to a very serious disease. Scientists have identified many mutations that arise in a single gene to cause an ...

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, ...

When scientists want to trace how a species has changed over time—and predict its prospects for survival—they turn to DNA. But what if the genetic map guiding them belongs to the wrong animal? Is it ...

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 ...

Genetic mapping reveals mania drives most inherited risk in bipolar disorder, identifying new gene regions and calcium ...

By Dr. Priyom Bose, Ph.D. By analyzing bowel movement frequency in more than 268,000 people, researchers uncover how thiamine ...

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 ...
