Rapidly testing hundreds of thousands of DNA sequences, scientists identified specific genetic variations contributing to blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.

Genome editing-based therapies typically aim to treat disease by correcting underlying genetic mutations in patient's cells.

DANVILLE, Pa. – A “genomic-first” approach to screening for rare genetic disorders —identifying specific genetic variants and then studying associated traits and symptoms — can identify these ...

"It's a slow-moving train wreck," Mike Graglia says about his 12-year-old son Tony's rare genetic disease with no cure. Caused by a tiny fluke of nature—a mutation in a gene known as a SYNGAP1—the non ...

Researchers developed brain organoids from patient samples to model genetic subtypes of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), creating a translational platform that better reflects the human-specific ...

Prenatal genetic testing has existed since the 1970s. In the 1990s, non-invasive testing became available, and significant scientific gains were made. Now, doctors can screen for hundreds of genetic ...

The Human Domainome 1—the largest library of human protein variants—reveals the cause of certain genetic disorders, paving the way for personalized medicines. “We measured every possible mutation in ...

A new method for safely inserting large chunks of DNA into genomes has now measured up in mice, potentially paving the way ...

A 19-year-old Canadian man becomes the first human cured through prime gene editing after doctors corrected a rare genetic ...
