Clinicians' ability to diagnose and treat chronic diseases is limited by scientific uncertainty around factors contributing ...

Researchers have significantly expanded the catalogue of known human genetic variation. The resulting datasets, shared in two back-to-back publications in the journal Nature, constitute what may be ...

Researchers still do not have a comprehensive picture of the factors that influence gene expression in human cancers. Understanding gene expression in cancer is important because it can reveal how the ...

A new genome-wide study uncovers evidence of the first three-way relationships between human genetic variation, variation in ...

For centuries, we’ve thought of these changes as part of the "genetic lottery," something we can't control. Science is now ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — New findings by University at Buffalo researchers reveal that RNA editing may play a larger role in human biology and in the development of human disease than has generally been ...

An international team of scientists has decoded some of the most stubborn, overlooked regions of the human genome using complete sequences from 65 individuals across diverse ancestries. This milestone ...

Several genetic variants associated with social behavior in honey bees are located within genes that have previously been ...

Summary: A new study suggests that autism may be linked to the rapid evolution of brain cell types unique to humans. Researchers found that outer-layer neurons in the human brain evolved far more ...

New findings by UB researchers reveal that RNA editing may play a larger role in human biology and in the development of human disease than has generally been understood. Published in Nature ...
