Researchers have unveiled Genetic Probabilistic Circuits, a deep generative model that captures long-range genetic ...

A large-scale computational study finds that protein misfolding may underlie a substantial share of hereditary hearing loss, ...

Population geneticist Sohini Ramachandran uses computational approaches and develops new techniques to explore human genetic variation and diversity.

Humans have between 20,000 and 25,000 genes that carry instructions for assembling the proteins that do the work of cells. Work led by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital found that children who ...

In a comprehensive Genomic Press Invited Expert Review, researchers from the University of Haifa have synthesized cutting-edge findings on Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), revealing how this complex ...

Inherited variations in antibody genes can affect how we respond to infections and vaccines, show two new studies from Karolinska Institutet published in the journal Immunity. The researchers have ...

Protein–protein interaction (PPI) networks accurately map environmental perturbations to their molecular consequences in cells, yet the effects of natural genetic variation on PPIs remain poorly ...

The pull toward a sugary drink or a plate of fries is often chalked up to willpower, but new genetic research suggests part of that craving is written into a person’s DNA. Analyzing the genes of ...

Malaria remains a major public-health burden in tropical regions, and rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) based on Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich protein 2 (PfHRP2) are widely used in endemic settings ...

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital investigators have discovered inherited genetic variations that are associated with rapid hearing loss in young cancer patients treated with the drug cisplatin.
