Scientists from a collaboration of Australian research institutions have proposed that editing multiple genetic variants in human embryos could significantly lower the likelihood of developing ...

It has a strong genetic component, although how it's inherited (passed down through family members) remains unclear. Experts suspect that multiple genes are involved and that nongenetic factors also ...

Their findings, published in Nature Aging, describe a never-before-seen link between the two most accepted explanations: random genetic mutations and predictable epigenetic modifications.

Even though a large proportion of cancer patients carry genetic mutations that make them more susceptible to cancer, only a small percentage of them — and their family members — undergo ...

Your body is a collection of cells carrying thousands of genetic mistakes accrued over a lifetime—many harmless, some bad and at least a few that may be good for you Amber Dance, Knowable ...

Genes play a role in our likelihood of developing depression, and one of the most extensive studies of its kind has now been able to link 293 previously unknown genetic variations to the devastating ...

Nearly 300 new genetic variants have been linked to depression, according to a new study that included a large sample of nearly 5 million people. The international team, led by researchers at the ...

For 30 years, researchers have known that Huntington's is caused by an inherited mutation in the Huntingtin (HTT) gene, but they didn't know how the mutation causes brain cell death. A study ...
