The Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse resource has emerged as an indispensable platform for elucidating the genetic basis of complex traits. By combining high levels of genetic diversity from eight ...

While everyone's mind works in its own unique way, complex thinkers who see things differently than most usually have these ...

Northwestern University biophysicists have developed a new computational tool for identifying the gene combinations underlying complex illnesses like diabetes, cancer and asthma. Unlike single-gene ...

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In an extraordinary achievement of advanced multiplexed genome engineering, Colossal Biosciences announces the birth of the Colossal Woolly Mouse—mice engineered to express ...

Today's biomedical researchers are relentlessly searching for genes that drive disease, with the goal of creating therapies that target those genes to restore health. When a single gene is the culprit ...

Researchers from Tel Aviv University have developed a genetic editing method tailored to crop plants, which has influenced various traits in tomato plants, including the taste and shape of the fruit.

Putting the two sources together allowed the researchers to build a detailed map of the gene networks that influence red blood cell traits. The picture that emerged showed a remarkably complex genetic ...

Imagine your doctor calls you to discuss the results of your genetic testing. They tell you your results indicate you are highly likely to develop Alzheimer's disease. But not to worry, because they ...
