Researchers have developed 'tomoseqr' -- a new software tool that enables easy estimation of the three-dimensional (3D) spatial distribution of gene expression. Tomoseqr is free to use and has been ...

Researchers develop synthetic markers that cross the blood-brain barrier, allowing for noninvasive monitoring of the living ...

Researchers have identified a distinct and reproducible gene expression program associated with neurotransmission in the living human brain, offering unprecedented insight into the molecular ...

Livestock breeders could soon have more tools to improve the health and quality of their animals, thanks to a recent study ...

Learn about comparative gene expression studies in Alzheimer's disease and other conditions in Mayo Clinic's Precision Medicine in Neurodegeneration Lab.

Our brain is arguably the organ that most distinguishes humans from other primates. Its exceptional size, complexity and capabilities far exceed those of any other species on Earth. Yet humans share ...

What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...

What if you could flip a genetic switch to silence a gene, then turn it back on with a simple drug? For researchers, gene-switch tools offer that kind of control—and a new system called Cyclone may ...

After a lifetime in the field of epigenetics, and nearly 20 years after my colleagues and I coined the term “genome editing,” I will be the first to admit that describing the “epigenome”—a marvelous ...

This article explains how diet creates sustained epigenetic changes that affect long-term health, disease risk, aging, and ...

Patients identified as having a Janus kinase inhibitor responder profile were much more likely to respond positively to the class of atopic dermatitis therapies. Scientists have identified gene ...
