Stefan Zajic, PhD, a principal research scientist at the Coriell Institute for Medical Science, will present at the upcoming American Society for Human Genetics’ annual meeting preliminary findings reporting a new gene variant that correlates to increased risk for stroke. The study also suggests that daily aspirin treatment reduces or eliminates the risk for those with the variant.

read moreThe Allen Institute for Cell Science has released the Allen Cell Collection: the first publicly available collection of gene edited, fluorescently tagged human induced pluripotent stem cells that target key cellular structures with unprecedented clarity. Distributed through the Coriell Institute for Medical Research, these powerful tools are a crucial first step toward visualizing the dynamic organization of cells to better understand what makes human cells healthy and what goes wrong in disease.
