The DNA damage from ionizing radiation (IR) erupting from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster of 1986 is showing up in the ...
Being invited to present research at an international academic conference is an honor for any seasoned professional. But for ...
Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health traits. By probing regions of DNA previously linked to disease, the work has ...
An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...
A massive genomics effort has identified thousands of single nucleotide non-coding variants, which alter gene activity, that link to disease and health.
BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations increase the risk of hereditary breast cancer. Here's what you should know about the causes, ...
In 1986, the nuclear disaster in Chernobyl released large amounts of ionizing radiation (IR) into the environment, and became one of the most serious ...
Pasca Lab specializes in growing three-dimensional organoid models from reprogrammed stem cells, which capture molecular changes during fetal brain-like development. Because the human brain cannot be ...
A new study suggests that inherited traits explain a small but measurable share of why some people relocate far from where ...
Engineers at the University of Pennsylvania and Rice University have refined a technology for editing individual genetic ...
