Emily Kramer-Golinkoff can’t get enough oxygen with each breath. Advanced cystic fibrosis makes even simple things like walking or showering arduous and exhausting. She has the most common fatal ...
Biology has clever ways to mask the effects of potentially harmful gene mutations. Scientists are investigating how this ...
Researchers have refined a powerful DNA sequencing tool that can uncover hidden mutations that occur naturally in our bodies as we age. In the largest study to date, they have used the tool to provide ...
Researchers discover that diverse genetic causes of autism converge on shared cell types and temporary maturation delays during early brain development.
A rare cause of hereditary cognitive decline known as CSF1R-Related Disorder (CSF1R-RD) gets its name from mutations in the CSF1R gene, discovered by Mayo Clinic. Memory loss occurs as the condition ...

A reanalysis of whole-genome data from 130 children conceived after the Chernobyl disaster has identified a statistically significant increase in a specific type of DNA mutation in the offspring of ...
While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...
Scientists cannot reliably predict whether an individual carrying certain gene variants will eventually end up obese. Put ...
In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers at the Arc Institute describe the development and advantages of “Evo 2”. Evo 2 is a novel biological foundation model trained on a ...
