Not every mom and dad agree on how their offspring should behave. But in genetics as in life, parenting is about knowing when your voice needs to be heard, and the best ways of doing so. Typically, ...

Cutting-edge DNA mapping technology identified new genetic information that can help researchers decipher more genetic diseases, a new study found. The research will be presented at the Pediatric ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, an international team of researchers developed a novel approach to infer parent-of-origin (PofO) of alleles without parental genomes. Genome-wide ...

Older female mice show poor spatial memory when their paternal X chromosome is inactive and only the maternal copy is active. This phenomenon could be responsible for variation in age-related ...
