Researchers found rare inherited structural variants in non-coding regions predispose children to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
read moreStudy suggests altered drug responses may be due to genetic variations in individuals according to research involving G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs).
read moreMost reports of schizophrenia genetic risk have focused on individuals of European ancestry. Leveraging the publicly-available 1000 Genomes Project data, this new study expands upon previous work to include a Chinese cohort in a genome-wide association study that identified 30 new genetic risk loci for schizophrenia.

read moreScientists use genomic data to identify structural variations in human red blood cells and discover a link for lower risk of severe malaria.
read moreScientists use genome-wide data to study the connection between age at menarche and cancer risk.
read moreBy sequencing the DNA of a family of 6, two of which affected with Kawasaki Disease, researchers found a relationship between TLR6 variants and KD.
read more26 genetic regions associated with lung function were sequenced to gain insight to the biological pathways that are linked to increased risk of developing COPD. The data was then pooled and analyzed against samples from the NHGRI repository to deduce their findings.
