Scientists at Gladstone Institutes have flipped the traditional approach to finding potential treatments for deadly diseases.

More than 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia. But there is research underway in Boston right now to ease that burden.

At Mass General Brigham, Boston researchers pair gene studies with a 12-point Brain Care Score to help lower the risk of Alzheimer's and other brain disorders.

Rapidly testing hundreds of thousands of DNA sequences, scientists identified specific genetic variations contributing to blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.

Scientists at Gladstone Institutes have flipped the traditional approach to finding potential treatments for deadly diseases. Instead of starting with a disease and hunting for a cure, they began with ...

Cells were long believed to safeguard nuclear contents, releasing them only during cell death. Extracellular DNA was thought ...

Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health traits. By probing regions of DNA previously linked to disease, the work has ...

In the canals, marshes, and swamps of the Florida Everglades, invasive fish are silently slipping into new waterways. Among them are the Asian swamp eel and the bullseye snakehead, two air-breathing ...

Collaboration, partnership, and clinical integration are key.

KLF5 appears to fuel pancreatic cancer metastasis by reprogramming epigenetic controls, offering a potential new therapeutic target.

Nancy Guthrie's kidnapper should be 'worried' about the DNA evidence they left at the scene tracing back to them, according to a genetic genealogist.
