Researchers at Cardiff University have uncovered how a particularly severe form of DNA damage arises—shedding new light on ...

An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...

The trajectory of base editing has been remarkable, progressing from the laboratory to patient care, treating debilitating or ...

One of the symptoms of schizophrenia is difficulty incorporating new information about the world. This can lead patients to struggle with making decisions and, eventually, to lose touch with reality.

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed a novel artificial intelligence (AI) tool that not only identifies disease-causing genetic mutations but also predicts the type ...

In this study, researchers aimed to characterize the mutational landscape of the tumors of domestic cats to determine whether similarities to humans could translate to the clinic.

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...

Gene editing technology allows to introduce and correct disease-linked mitochondrial DNA mutations in liver and skin cells In a step toward treating mitochondrial diseases, researchers in the ...

Researchers found a grin2a mutation disrupts a brain circuit that updates beliefs using new information. In mice, restoring ...

Researchers have used advanced genetic sequencing on a Brisbane family to identify a gene mutation linked to ulcerative colitis, a type of inflammatory bowel condition, sparking hopes of new ...
