Studying over 100,000 embryos revealed genetic factors behind chromosome segregation issues that lead to aneuploidy, ...

Researchers from Radboud university medical center and University of Basel have discovered new genetic causes of inherited blindness. Their study shows that changes in specific pieces of DNA, which ...

Gout causes sudden flares of joint pain, which often arise during the nighttime, and in the big toe, though it may affect other joints including the ankles or knees. It is the most common type of ...

Non-protein-coding genes have been linked to a hereditary condition, retinitis pigmentosa, that causes progressive blindness.

The findings shed new light on human reproduction and suggest pathways for developing treatments to lower the risk of ...

The cause of rare diseases is increasingly being detected through genome sequencing, which involves reading the entire human DNA by first breaking it into small pieces -- short reads. Scientists found ...

Huntington's disease is caused by an inherited genetic change that causes production of an altered protein. This leads to nerve damage in areas of the brain that control movement and thinking.

The cause of rare diseases is increasingly being detected through genome sequencing, which involves reading the entire human ...

Stuttering is more than a speech issue; it’s a life-altering condition for millions globally. If someone you know struggles with stuttering, the frustration and emotional toll can be profound. Until ...

Researchers from Radboud University Medical Center and University of Basel have discovered new genetic causes of inherited blindness. Their study, published in Nature Genetics, shows that changes in ...
