The contribution of genetics to the variability in people’s metabolism has remained largely unknown. This is, in part, because genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and ...

A new study, published in Nature Genetics, created the largest genetic map of human metabolism, revealing new insights into the role of metabolites in health and disease and creating a blueprint for ...

Human gene maps contain major blind spots because they were built largely from the DNA sequences of people with European ancestry, according to a study published in Nature Communications. Subscribe to ...

Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale genetic differences in the Qatari population, providing a clearer picture ...

Despite rapid advances in reading the genetic code of living organisms, scientists still face a major challenge today—knowing a gene's sequence does not automatically reveal what it does. Even in ...

Over 1,000 genes may serve as possible treatment targets for individuals with kidney disease, according to a new study, published in Science, from researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the ...

When someone is diagnosed with depression and anxiety, it rarely surprises their clinician. When someone with schizophrenia has mood symptoms, it rarely surprises their family. Comorbidity has always ...
