Using single-cell epigenomic profiling of immune cells from 110 individuals, researchers show that genetic variation and ...

A deeper understanding of how DNA changes over generations helps scientists learn why people differ and how diseases develop. Until recently, many fast-changing parts of the human genome remained ...

Explore the latest news and discoveries in human genetics, which explores how the molecular DNA sequences of our genomes shape our bodies, minds and health. From uncovering the causes of genetic ...

For many scientists, the first glimpse of a DNA sequence—those colored peaks marking A, T, C, and G—sparked a lifelong fascination with the code that shapes us all. That same spirit of discovery ...

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators have identified novel genetic interactions that may contribute to congenital heart disease (CHD), a common birth defect.

It has been suggested that the human species may be undergoing an evolutionary transition in individuality (ETI). But there is disagreement about how to apply the ETI framework to our species, and ...

Officially unveiled at the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) 2025 meeting held in Boston, Genomics has launched Mystra, an AI-enabled human genetics platform designed to accelerate drug target ...
