In a new study published in Nature titled, “Complex genetic variation in nearly complete human genomics,” an international team of researchers from the Human Genome Structural Variation ...

Researchers have put together the most complete view yet of the genetic variation in humans, presented in two studies in the journal Nature.

Genetic variation describes the genotypic and phenotypic differences between individuals in a population, and between populations. This variation arises through genetic mutation and is important ...

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

An international team of researchers have significantly expanded the catalogue of known human genetic variation. The resulting datasets, shared in two back-to-back publications in the journal ...

Two studies using long-read sequencing have revealed over 167,000 structural variants across global populations, doubling known variation. By combining breadth and depth, researchers mapped ...

By drawing on genetic data from over five million people, an international team of researchers has created a genetic test called a polygenic risk score (PGS) that predicts adulthood obesity ...
