Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine’s Dan L Duncan Comprehensive Cancer Center and Human Genome Sequencing Center investigated the extent to which forms of genetic variation called germline or ...

Antibody-based therapies are used to treat numerous diseases, from cancer to rheumatic disorders and multiple sclerosis.

Historic population bottlenecks left cheetahs genetically similar, increasing disease risk and threatening long-term survival ...

Researchers from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC) report that most genetic influences on mental illness are shared across diagnostic categories, revealing a more interconnected biological ...

A study suggests psychiatric disorders can share the same genetic signatures and that they may stem from shared biological ...

Several genetic variations were recovered in individuals during remission compared to those in active disease. Recovered features included reduction of plasma and cell cycle signatures and increase of ...

Animal breeding has traditionally focused on improving mean trait performance; however, contemporary research increasingly highlights the significance of genetic variation not only in trait means but ...

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 ...

Meet the luckiest people on Earth — individuals carrying a rare genetic mutation that prevents wrinkles from forming even as they age well into their 80s. These genetic lottery winners have provided ...

Many psychiatric disorders share symptoms and most people who receive a psychiatric diagnosis will be diagnosed with more ...
