A polygenic risk score was able to detect a high proportion of clinically significant prostate cancer. Cancer would not have been detected in 71.8% of patients with the use of PSA or MRI screening.

Telomere length and polygenic risk scores (PRS) are linked to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) risk, especially in noncarriers of rare genetic variants. The study identified rare damaging variants ...

An insightful mini-review published in Genomic Psychiatry synthesizes the rapidly expanding landscape of molecular genetic research on common epilepsies, assembling evidence from genome-wide ...

A new international study challenges the century‑old dominance of Mendelian genetics, arguing that most traits arise from ...

Individuals who carry common genetic variants associated with autism tend to have lower density in the brain’s microscopic wiring, regardless of whether they actually have an autism diagnosis. The ...
