Researchers at the Harvard Stem Cell Institute are one step closer to achieving the ultimate promise of stem cell research—creating tissues for every part of the body—without the use of harmful viruses or cancer-causing genes.
In recent years, Giedd has shifted his focus to twins, which is why the Manns are such exciting recruits. Although most brain development seems to follow a set plan, with changes following cues that are preprogrammed into genes, other, subtler changes in gray matter reflect experience and environment. By following...
Researchers have previously attempted to create iPS cells using retroviruses, though it was feared these could activate cancer genes.
Political views are often so staunchly held that one wonders whether they aren't hardwired in a person's genes. Indeed, in the past, studies of twins have suggested that DNA may play a role in determining political attitudes. Although no one has yet discovered a gene for, say, supporting...
Ruvkun said that it took approximately 10 years to “sniff around the whole thing” to unearth the genetic regulatory role of miRNAs in worms and another decade to confirm that these genes execute similar functions during growth and development of other creatures including humans, fruit...
