Muscles make up nearly 40% of the human body and power every move we make, from a child's first steps to recovery after injury. For some, however, muscle development goes awry, leading to weakness, ...
UCLA Health researchers have created a comprehensive map showing how eight different genetic mutations associated with autism spectrum disorder affect early brain development, providing new insights ...
Cancer cells carry thousands of mutations, but not all mutations are created equal. Some make tumors highly visible to the ...
Traditional biochemical methods of studying human gene mutations are often laborious and costly. Now bioengineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a new simple approach to ...
The DNA of Chernobyl cleanup workers and others exposed to high doses of radiation showed mutations that were also evident in ...
Gene-editing tools like CRISPR have unlocked new treatments for previously uncurable diseases. Now, researchers at the ...
Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...
Your surroundings may influence your social behavior more than you realize. New research from the Brain Research Institute at ...
A Google DeepMind invention that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to predict how DNA mutations behave could have a ...
As we age, the genes in our cells accumulate more mutations. This is one of the contributory factors to age-related diseases and the aging process. However, in a new study published in Science ...
