Cancer is often thought of as a single disease. Yet even tumors that arise in the same organ can follow very different genetic paths. A new study shows that these differences can sometimes be traced ...

A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the first time, in a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine and the ...

Research links variations in the gene GRIN2A to a higher risk of developing schizophrenia and other forms of mental illness. The GRIN2A gene regulates communication between neurons by producing the ...

Genetic disorders can occur due to mutations in one gene (monogenic), multiple genes (multifactorial inheritance), and mutation in one or more chromosomes. Point mutations are where one nucleotide in ...

UK researchers have uncovered key cancer gene mutations that drive tumour growth, offering new insights into cancer ...

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed a novel artificial intelligence (AI) tool that not only identifies disease-causing genetic mutations but also predicts the type ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have uncovered a previously unrecognized mechanism by which inherited calcium ...

Dr. Derya Deniz Özdemir, senior researcher at Koç University School of Medicine and the Research Center for Translational Medicine (KUTTAM), is the lead author of the study published in Nature ...
