A team of researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has uncovered why children with the same leukemia-causing gene mutation can have dramatically different outcomes: it depends on ...

In a recent study published in Nature Genetics, a group of researchers advanced variant effect prediction across the human proteome by integrating deep evolutionary signals with human population ...

A new AI model called popEVE can predict how likely each variant in a patient’s genome is to cause disease. The team is testing popEVE in clinical settings to see if it can speed accurate diagnoses of ...

A new AI model is opening the black box of the leading artificial intelligence tool for predicting how proteins will interact with small molecules, such as drugs. The model, OpenFold3, which launched ...

Scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a revolutionary gene-editing method using bacterial retrons that can correct multiple disease-causing mutations at once. Unlike ...
