Researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Cambridge, have interrogated several interconnected questions related to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) heteroplasmy and the influence of nuclear genetics.
Research conducted by Revolution Medicines, California, and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer, New York, has developed a method to bypass the undruggable nature of a common oncogene mutation that drives cancer development and ...
Two significant factors have hampered the age of human-integrated cybernetics. One, humans can interact well with electronic devices without needing to implant them. Nearly all cybernetic human-machine interactions can be ...
Research led by Kyoto University, Japan, is reshaping commonly held assumptions about cancer proliferation. In their paper "Evolutionary histories of breast cancer and related clones" published in Nature, the research team ...
Scientists at Stanford University have found a way to induce cell death in cancer cells with a method that could be effective in around 50% of cancers. In a paper, "Rewiring cancer drivers to activate apoptosis," published ...
Recent neuroscience studies have consistently outlined the role of the C9ORF72 gene in the development of some neurodegenerative diseases. These studies found that mutations of this gene increase the risk of developing amyotrophic ...
Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, have attempted to restore color vision to completely color-blind subjects using gene therapy. In their paper, "Seeing color following gene augmentation therapy in ...
Genetic researchers at Nagoya University, Japan, have delved into the genetic underpinning of a rare skin condition affecting children that is unusually common in Japan.
