Genetic Differences

The researchers noted that despite significant cultural and linguistic differences, the two groups intermingled in the past for several hundred years, which resulted in genetic affinity.

Scientists have discovered a unique group of polar bears with distinct behaviour in southeast Greenland, that have remained isolated for hundreds of years. These polar bears are genetically different from other polar bears. While polar bears in the Arctic region usually depend on sea ice to hunt seals, the new group of polar bears appears to have ...

A new research suggests that the Darwinian evolution could be happening up to four times faster than previously thought. Based on an analysis of genetic variation, the researchers state evolution can happen faster if there are more genetic differences in a species. This is because certain traits die off and stronger ones get established. The study ...

Pharmaceutical companies Bharat Biotech and Biological E Ltd said on Monday they could quickly rework their COVID-19 vaccine products to fight new variants once their genetic sequence is known. In recent months, India has confirmed the presence of the variants first identified in Brazil, Britain and South Africa, which are believed to explain an up...

Variation in a genetic mutation among Indians may be the main reason behind the difference in the death rates due to COVID-19 across various states of the country, says a study that could inform new policies for controlling the novel coronavirus pandemic.

A new study has confirmed this belief through a study that showed that the same meal plan will not show the same results for two people even as genetically similar to each other as twins.

There is only one goal we have in mind while taking medicines - immediate relief!. Very few of us get into the technicality of how medication works, why different people respond to different medicines, why some medicines work faster, why do some cause extreme side effects. Let's know more

YOU are unique. YOU are built differently from others around you. YOU are genetically, "molecularly", nutritionally, metabolically unique!!!

While Anushka Panda topped the CBSE class 10 examinations in the differently-abled category, what she's most proud of is not using the extra half-an-hour in each paper, to which she is legally entitled.

We all share about 99.9% DNA with each other. Its true. That 0.1% difference in our genetic make up is what makes us different! Its this 0.1% difference that makes us susceptible to different diseases, and dictates how we respond to the same drugs.

According to the study published in the journal JAMA, said there is very little difference in terms of impact of both the diets. They studied the genetic makeup as well as responses to these diets.

Long ago, Egyptians carved a cemetery into a rock wall along the Nile River 250 miles south of Cairo. The cemetery outlasted its 12th Dynasty creators. It survived intermittent pillaging by tomb raiders. And then in 1907, an excavator named Erfai discovered an untouched tomb. This was an unusual burial site. Within the tomb lay two high-society men...

Scientists in Stanford University have found out a different molecule CD22, which can be targetted against genetically modified T-cells in CAR T-cell therapy - as an effective treatment for leukaemia.

A new study claims that white bread may not be bad for everyone as different people respond differently to the same food item due to the dissimilarity in their genetic makeup and overall lifestyle.

World Haemophilia Day is observed on 17th April across the globe to draw attention to this inherent genetic disorder that affects millions of people.
