The analysis revealed that about 2 per cent of sperm from men in their early 30s contained disease-causing mutations. That ...
A single microscopic change in our DNA can permanently alter how the brain is built, locking in developmental problems that no amount of later effort can fully undo. Researchers are now tracing how ...
Experiments on an ultra-rare genetic mutation that causes neurodegeneration in children have helped uncover a new mechanism ...
A major evolutionary theory says most genetic changes don’t really matter, but new evidence suggests that’s not true. Researchers found that helpful mutations happen surprisingly often. The twist is ...
A microscopic flaw in the brain’s cellular scaffolding can shape brain size for life.
Indoor tanning is associated with markedly higher mutation burdens and cancer-driving genetic changes in melanocytes taken ...
A review article led by researchers from the B·ARGO group at the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) and from the ...
During development of the digestive system, a complex network of nerves forms around it, creating a "second brain"—the ...
