Genetic research is finally starting to explain how DNA risk scores translate into real disease, not just in single genes but ...

A new genome-wide mapping method finally shows how thousands of genes connect to drive disease. Biomedical researchers are working intensively to identify the genes that contribute to disease, with ...

Mount Sinai scientists developed V2P, a powerful new AI tool that predicts how specific DNA mutations translate into disease, ...

Aortic stenosis is a narrowing of the aortic valve, which connects the heart to the rest of the body. It affects millions of ...

This year saw notable progress in head and neck cancers, Huntington's disease, personalized genetic therapy, and heart ...

Investigations suggest V2P may be efficiently applied for the automated identification of causal variants in simulated and actual patient sequencing data across phenotypes.

Australian scientists have identified the key genetic drivers behind long COVID, revealing why some people continue to ...

Proteins circulating in the blood can reveal what's happening in the body, from how we process energy to how diseases develop ...

Genetic inheritance may sound straightforward: One gene causes one trait or a specific illness. When doctors use genetics, it’s usually to try to identify a disease-causing gene to help guide ...

Huntington’s disease (HD) is one of those rare conditions that affects not just the patient but the entire family—medically, emotionally and genetically. This inherited brain disorder causes gradual ...

The study of cacao genetics has provided profound insights into the domestication, diversity and disease resistance mechanisms of Theobroma cacao. Recent advances in genomic sequencing and mapping ...

A new genetic mapping strategy reveals how entire networks of genes work together to cause disease, filling in the missing ...
