Single-cell transcriptomics data from mouse bone-relevant cells was used to inform human bone mineral density genome-wide association studies and prioritize genetic targets with potential causal roles ...

A new study combines genetic data and improved computational tools to look more closely at GWAS results for both adult-onset and childhood-onset asthma. The research identified many genetic variants ...

The genome serves as the blueprint for the body, influencing every trait from the shape of the face to the arches of the feet, and even the development of certain diseases. While some disorders, like ...

The largest and most ethnically diverse study of its kind has identified 697 genetic variants linked to major depressive disorder (MDD). The research also highlights potential therapies for ...

The largest genetic analysis of stuttering has demonstrated a clear genetic basis for the speech disorder, highlighting neurological pathways of risk. The study, published July 28 in the journal ...

Screening large genetic datasets can uncover harbingers of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. For AD, most older genome-wide association studies have relied heavily on ...
