A new study headed by teams at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), and Open Targets has indicated how mutations that cause cancer drug resistance fall ...

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

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have identified genetic changes in blood stem cells from frequent blood donors that support the production of new, non-cancerous cells. Understanding the ...

For patients with disorders such as autism and schizophrenia, mutations in the same gene could require different treatments, according to new research from Yale School of Medicine (YSM). Many ...

Researchers found a way to screen cancer-linked gene mutations much more easily and quickly than existing approaches, using a variant of CRISPR genome-editing known as prime editing. Tumors can carry ...

Researchers have identified genetic changes in blood stem cells from frequent blood donors that support the production of new, non-cancerous cells. Understanding the differences in the mutations that ...

Université Laval provides funding as a founding partner of The Conversation CA-FR. Université Laval provides funding as a member of The Conversation CA. I have always been fascinated by genetics, a ...

New research published in Nature Communications has linked a normal cellular process to an accumulation of DNA mutations in cancer and identified cancer-driving mutations in an underexplored part of ...
