Phys.org / Low-cost genome sequencing approach is powering genetics research on mental illness and many other studies
For researchers on the hunt for the genetic roots of disease, the cost of deep whole-genome sequencing makes it challenging to conduct large genetic studies involving thousands of participants, which are needed to reveal ...
Medical Xpress / Populationwide DNA screening expands genetic risk testing beyond major medical centers
Some people inherit genetic changes that put them at higher risk of developing certain cancers or heart disease. A simple genetic test can identify those risks early, creating opportunities to prevent disease or detect it ...
