"As the credits rolled, my tears became something much more than empathy for a fictional character. They became grief renewed ...

How much of our lifespan is written in our genes, and how much is sitting on our plates? A new analysis suggests that while ...

The COVID-19 pandemic gave us tremendous perspective on how wildly symptoms and outcomes can vary between patients experiencing the same infection. How can two people infected by the same pathogen ...

Gregor Mendel described his experiments with pea plants and proved that genes are transmitted in discrete units, with certain ...

Why does the same virus barely faze one person while sending another to the hospital? New research shows the answer lies in a molecular record etched into our immune cells by both our genes and our ...

Domestic pigs bred with wild boar after the nuclear disaster offer lessons in wildlife genetics and invasive species management.

Scientists have mapped how genetics and life experiences leave lasting epigenetic marks on immune cells. The discovery helps explain why people respond so differently to the same infections and could ...

In addition, KFSH has documented close to 3,000 variants specific to Arab populations, 34% of which are not represented in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), thereby strengthening the ...
