An atlas of cells in the human brain’s control hub A comprehensive atlas of the human hypothalamus, a brain region that regulates many bodily functions, including temperature, sleep and appetite, has been built using single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics. The atlas reveals previous...

A compendium of Amplification-Related Gain Of Sensitivity genes in human cancer In cancer, the impact on cellular fitness of copy-number gains affecting collaterally-amplified genes remains poorly understood compared to oncogenes. Here, the authors integrate genomic data from tumours and cell lines an...
” suggests the late physicist and author Stephen Hawking inThe Sunday Times. “Presumably, they will die out, or become unimportant. Instead, there will be a race of self-designing beings who are improving themselves at an ever-increasing rate. If the human race manages to redesign itself, ...
How will society use the information learned from the Human Genome Project? At the end of the twentieth century, scientists in Scotland cloned a sheep. Will (and should) scientists make exact replicas of human beings as well? * ethical means having to do with questions of what is right and...

Evolution of cardiac genomic elements in humans and non-human primates Analyses of transcription and translation identify newly evolved genes and translated sequences (open reading frames) unique to hearts from human and non-human primates, suggesting that these genetic innovations might influence cardiac...

INVESTIGATING SHARED GENETICS EFFECTS BETWEEN SOCIAL REWARD SENSITIVITY THROUGH MUSIC AND HUMAN PSYCHIATRIC TRAITS doi:10.1016/j.euroneuro.2024.08.328Background From listening to playing music or singing in a group, social engagement with music can be a highly rewarding activity (e.g., Cross ...
Human genetics - Environment, Variation, Heredity: As stated earlier in this article, gene expression occurs only after modification by the environment. A good example is the recessively inherited disease called galactosemia, in which the enzyme necessar
