Genome assemblies from 65 individuals, representing a variety of the world’s populations, are advancing the scientific exploration of complex genetic structural variation. Structural variations are ...

Scientists have created the most detailed cell map to date showing how genetic variation influences inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), revealing the specific cells and genes that drive the disease.

The research identified likely disease-driving genes at more than half of known IBD risk regions, highlighting new ...

Several genes with varying inheritance patterns are involved in determining your blood type. The most significant gene is the ABO gene which determines your ABO blood type. Like many of your physical ...

Humans were isolated in southern Africa for about 100,000 years, which caused them to "fall outside the range of genetic variation" seen in modern-day people, a new genetic study reveals. The finding ...
