Grâce au séquençage du génome de différents virus, les scientifiques se sont aperçus que ces pathogènes tirent avantage des ...

Et si la maladie d’Alzheimer n’était pas forcément irréversible ? Des chercheurs américains montrent que, chez la souris, un ...

Les avancées de l’intelligence artificielle permettent désormais d’établir des relations de cause à effet des variations génétiques spécifiquement pour chaque patient, en fonction de l’ensemble de son ...

Researchers discovered that tanning beds cause widespread, mutation-laden DNA damage across almost all skin, explaining the sharply increased melanoma risk. Single-cell genomic analysis revealed ...

Andrew Joseph covers health, medicine, and the biopharma industry in Europe. You can reach Andrew on Signal at drewqjoseph.71. LONDON — A sperm donor who unknowingly carried a gene variant that can ...

Research links variations in the gene GRIN2A to a higher risk of developing schizophrenia and other forms of mental illness. The GRIN2A gene regulates communication between neurons by producing the ...

In a breakthrough study, scientists have discovered that a variant in one gene, GRIN2A, can directly cause mental illness – something previously believed to be the result of several mutations working ...

Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...

Tatiana Schlossberg, the youngest granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy, recently revealed she was diagnosed with terminal acute myeloid leukemia (AML) due to a rare genetic anomaly. In a ...

As we age, our cells accumulate DNA mutations. If any of these mutations confer a growth advantage to a self-renewing or long-lived progenitor cell, its lineage can expand. The progenitor cells that ...

Every cancer carries a unique genetic fingerprint: variations in DNA known as “somatic variants” that occur in tumor DNA but are absent from the patient’s healthy cells. While some cancers may also ...

The risk of older fathers passing on disease-causing mutations to their children is higher than we thought. Genome sequencing has revealed that among men in their early thirties, around 1 in 50 sperm ...
