A recent study finds that certain psychiatric disorders have considerable genetic overlap. But these genes aren’t the whole ...

Gene editing has moved from theory to bedside with a speed that would have seemed impossible a decade ago. A new wave of ...

A new CRISPR approach can control genes without cutting DNA, opening a safer path for treating genetic diseases. A newly ...

An analysis of DNA from millions of individuals has identified shared genetic pathways across psychiatric disorders, findings ...

A new genetic mapping strategy reveals how entire networks of genes work together to cause disease, filling in the missing links left by traditional genetic studies. The technique could transform how ...

Genetic testing can help doctors diagnose some neurological disorders, such as Huntington’s disease. It can also provide insights into a person’s risk of future health conditions. Genetic testing ...

The exact cause of personality disorders is unclear. However, genetics, neurological differences, and environmental factors may contribute to the development of these complex mental health conditions.

New genetic evidence links higher BMI and IBD to hidradenitis suppurativa risk, while smoking remains unclear. Read more.

Mount Sinai scientists developed V2P, a powerful new AI tool that predicts how specific DNA mutations translate into disease, unlocking faster diagnoses and new targets for therapy.

Rare genetic disorders are typically caused by a variant in a single gene. It is estimated that there are over 7000 such conditions, meaning that although individually rare, they are collectively ...

Diagnosing rare Mendelian disorders is a labor-intensive task, even for experienced geneticists. Investigators at Baylor College of Medicine are trying to make the process more efficient using ...
