Genetic Testing

Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory, Broad Institute, and Yale University use AI to identify DNA sequences that control gene activation in specific cells. This AI model decodes patterns in DNA regions called cis-regulatory elements (CREs), guiding synthetic DNA switches for cell-specific gene activity. Early testing in animal models showed succes...

A US startup, Heliospect Genomics, is offering wealthy couples the option to test embryos for IQ amid growing ethical debates over genetic modification.

A new paper searches huge human data sets for gene variants that throw the 1:1 sex ratio off balance, and test the biological and theoretical rules of sex ratio.

Scientists have identified a new blood group system called MAL, which includes the AnWj antigen. This discovery, led by Dr. Louise Tilley and her team at NHS Blood and Transplant, resolves a decades-old mystery and facilitates the creation of new genotyping tests. Over 99.9% of individuals are AnWj-positive, but those who are AnWj-negative could fa...

Below we share some common early signs of bipolar disorder to help you identify the condition and seek professional help.

Babies born as a result of incest are at an increased risk of having birth defects and genetic disorders.

Researchers have detailed the risk patterns of cancers in families of men producing fewer or no sperms in a new study using genetic sequencing.

The doctors informed the couple that Poppy had pneumonia in her lungs and also tested positive for a respiratory infection.

In Bolzano, dog owners are now required to provide their dog's DNA to enable authorities to match it with any feces found on city streets.

The case dates back to May 17, 1982, when 47-year-old Kevin McBride died of multiple stab wounds inside his apartment in Toronto.

The database includes information such as display names, sex, birth year, and some details about users genetic ancestry results.

An Indian-origin laboratory owner from the US state of Georgia was sentenced to 27 years in prison for his involvement in a USD 463 million genetic testing scam spanning over three years to defraud Medicare.

The High Court of Karnataka has ordered a couple to undergo a triple test -- genetic, physical and economical -- for seeking permission to obtain a child through surrogacy.

Researchers reported the latest in a surprising string of experiments in the quest to save human lives with organs from genetically modified pigs.

Students qualifying Class 12th this year from Science stream can get themselves admitted to alternative UG courses including Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery, Unani Medicine and Surgery, Veterinary Sciences and Animal Husbandry, Biotechnology, Biomedical Engineering and Genetic Engineering.
