Brain dynamics and cognition share genetic roots. Criticality may guide future brain health research. A recent study published on June 24 in PNAS presents strong evidence that brain criticality—the de ...

Google’s DeepMind unit has used its artificial intelligence expertise to catalogue millions of ‘missense’ mutations in human DNA that may be related to the development of human diseases.

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be ...

Genetic testing and spending on that testing have grown rapidly since the mapping of the human genome in 2003. However, it is not widely known how many tests there are, how they are used, and how ...

We studied the genetics and immunology of PD using both molecular biologic and molecular genetic techniques. Men (n =283) with PD were identified by retrospective chart review of one physician's ...
