Scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a revolutionary gene-editing method using bacterial retrons ...

Scientists have identified mutations in the CPD gene as a key cause of a rare congenital hearing loss, revealing how ...

The researchers studied these genomes and found that eight regions had distinct genetic variation, meaning specific genetic variants were more common in the Turkana than in other populations. The ...

The contribution of genetics to the variability in people’s metabolism has remained largely unknown. This is, in part, because genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and ...
