The genetic heritage is not a simple, static list inside the cell nucleus. It unfolds into a dynamic architecture whose ...

For decades, geneticists have known that most common illnesses are not caused by a single rogue gene but by intricate ...

Sometimes, a small error in the sequence of DNA can lead to a very serious disease. Scientists have identified many mutations ...

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

General introduction to the estimation of genetic risks -- Mendelian risk -- Risk modified by reproductive history -- Risk based upon phenotype -- Risk based upon genotype -- Familial versus new ...

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

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 ...
