A microfluidic device barely larger than a U.S. quarter and developed by a Rutgers University-led team can detect rare genetic mutations from a single drop of blood. A team led by Rutgers ...

Researchers now have thousands of new DNA mutations to study as possible causes of autism, thanks to an artificial intelligence-powered technique described in a study published May 27 in Nature ...

Proteogenomics explores how genetic information translates into protein expression and function, and the role of changes across DNA, RNA, and proteins in influencing disease development and ...

A new study has developed a powerful computational method that can detect how genes interact with each other to influence complex traits in humans at a scale previously impossible. The new method was ...

Yesterday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first blood-based genetic test that can detect gene mutations in non-small cell lung cancer patients. The cobas EGFR Mutation Test v2 is a ...

A graph-based computational tool for detecting previously invisible genetic mutations has been developed. Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA; USA) and the University of ...

Cancer is often thought of as a single disease. Yet even tumors that arise in the same organ can follow very different genetic paths. A new study shows that these differences can sometimes be traced ...

Emily Kramer-Golinkoff can't get enough oxygen with each breath. Advanced cystic fibrosis makes even simple things like walking or showering arduous and exhausting. She has the most common fatal ...
