A new study by UCLA Health published in Cell presents a major advancement in the future of personalized medicine by pinpointing new connections between people's genes, disease risk and medicine ...

In a recent study published in the journal JAMA Cardiology, a group of researchers identified rare predicted loss-of-function variants associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) and elucidated their ...

The human genome is organised in 46 chromosomes, where all but the x and y chromosomes in men are present in two copies. This means that a person with a faulty gene on one chromosome most often has a ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...

Heart diseases are growing at an alarming pace around the world. As per a World Health Organisation report from July 31, 2025, 19.8 million people died from cardiovascular disease just in 2022.

Researchers have demonstrated a specific type of genetic variation in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) for the first time using advanced DNA sequencing technology. The findings support previous ...

A new study found certain genetic variants could help explain how long-term pesticide exposure could increase the risk of Parkinson's disease. A new UCLA Health study found certain genetic variants ...

Genetic tests for Alzheimer’s can detect specific genes linked to the disease. In most cases, they can’t definitively confirm or predict a diagnosis, but they can provide insight into your relative ...
