Copy number variations (CNVs) are a pervasive form of genomic variation that entail duplications or deletions of DNA segments ranging from kilobases to megabases. In animal genomes, CNVs contribute ...

A breakthrough method for analyzing the DNA of centuries-old plant samples has given scientists an edge in combating the spread of invasive plants. Researchers from Monash University and the ...

Precision medicine has revolutionized the landscape of neurological care, shifting from “one-size-fits-all” approaches to ...

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 ...

A new study challenges what's long been assumed about genetic variants thought to always cause inherited blindness.

Explore the new AI model that links genetic mutations to disease outcomes, revolutionising genetic diagnosis and treatment.

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

A multi-university research team co-led by University of Virginia engineering professor Gustavo K. Rohde has developed a system that can spot genetic markers of autism in brain images with 89 to 95% ...

The largest study so far into the genetics of chronic fatigue syndrome, or myalgic encephalomyelitis, has implicated 259 ...
