Tiny repeated stretches of DNA in your genome may quietly shape how your body works, how your brain develops and how you ...

Evolution is often characterized as a tinkerer creating efficient but messy solutions. We analyze the nature of the problems that arise when trying to explain and understand cognitive phenomena ...

Proteogenomics explores how genetic information translates into protein expression and function, and the role of changes across DNA, RNA, and proteins in influencing disease development and ...

A new dimension of genetic variation Most tools and algorithms only look at the length of tandem repeats. Using an algorithm developed by Yuen and through expertise at The Centre for Applied Genomics ...

Computerized brain training can hold off cognitive decline and dementia, research suggests, and researchers have been quite successful at devising ways to diagnose Alzheimer’s earlier and earlier.

So far, it has not been possible to explain the causes of around half of all rare hereditary diseases. A Munich research team has developed an algorithm that predicts the effects of genetic mutations ...
