Being invited to present research at an international academic conference is an honor for any seasoned professional. But for ...

While the genes involved can differ, this example illustrates how most cancers arise. Accumulated DNA mutations, acquired either over time (ageing naturally leads to some DNA mistakes) or from ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have developed two innovative deep-learning algorithms, ClairS-TO and Clair3-RNA, that significantly advance genetic ...

Experiments on an ultra-rare genetic mutation that causes neurodegeneration in children have helped uncover a new mechanism by which brain cells die. A team led by scientists at the German research ...

Scientists have revealed parts of the genome that are especially vulnerable to mutations that occur very early on in development. These areas are in the initial portions of genes, where the cell tends ...

The purpose of this retrospective study was to investigate the imaging phenotype and genetic variation of three fetuses with FLT4 gene mutations in three families. Ultrasound images of the three ...

HINXTON, England — At first glance, the news sounds reassuring: sperm cells accumulate genetic mutations eight times slower than blood cells, making them among the most protected cells in the male ...

A man sits outside and holds a slim menthol cigarette between his fingers. Close-up with focus on the cigarette. The study provided a comprehensive examination of how lifestyle and environmental ...

Meet the luckiest people on Earth — individuals carrying a rare genetic mutation that prevents wrinkles from forming even as they age well into their 80s. These genetic lottery winners have provided ...

This program implements a genetic algorithm for curve fitting using a polynomial equation. The goal is to find the best coefficients for the polynomial equation that minimize the distance between the ...

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 ...
