A genetic difference carried by nearly one in three people may increase the risk of severe COVID-19 and lung fibrosis by ...

Genetic rescue is a potentially powerful conservation strategy to restore fitness in small genetically depauperate populations; however, long-term effectiveness, impact of rescuer traits and ...

People who carry genetic variations linked to obesity are more likely to be heavier now than individuals with the same ...

People who carry genetic variations linked to obesity are more likely to be heavier now than individuals with the same variants who were born before the recent obesity epidemic. Liam Wright of ...

Understanding the interaction between genetic and epigenetic variation remains a challenge due to confounding environmental factors. We propose that human induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) are an ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...
