New MAL Blood Group System Identified, Revealing Genetic Basis of Rare Blood Types
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...

What Makes a Criminal? Gene Trawl Raises Questions
Is a violent criminal born that way, or shaped by childhood experiences and circumstances? Delving into one of oldest questions in psychology, some scientists have suggested genes may contribute to roughly half of the influence -- by affecting complex brain chemistry, for instance.
