Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed a novel artificial intelligence tool that not only ...

The genetic heritage is not a simple, static list inside the cell nucleus. It unfolds into a dynamic architecture whose ...

A microscopic flaw in the brain’s cellular scaffolding can shape brain size for life.

Researchers identified a new genetic mutation that may allow some people to survive, even thrive, on three hours of sleep. The mutation is called SIK3-N783Y. Scientists said mice test subjects ...

During development of the digestive system, a complex network of nerves forms around it, creating a "second brain"—the ...

The analysis revealed that about 2 per cent of sperm from men in their early 30s contained disease-causing mutations. That ...

Meet the luckiest people on Earth — individuals carrying a rare genetic mutation that prevents wrinkles from forming even as they age well into their 80s. These genetic lottery winners have provided ...

The study focused on inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs), a group of genetic diseases that lead to progressive vision loss ...

Now, researchers have identified one of these mutations, named SIK3-N783Y, in a human super-sleeper. The team then studied the mutation in genetically modified mice and found that the mice carrying ...

A single modification in the protein found on the surface of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 influenza virus currently circulating in U.S. dairy cows could allow for easier ...
