The human brain is a fascinating and complex organ that supports numerous sophisticated behaviors and abilities that are observed in no other animal species. For centuries, scientists have been trying to understand what is so unique about the human bra…

A study led by biomedical scientists at the University of California, Riverside, has shown for the first time that a father’s exposure to microplastics (MPs) can trigger metabolic dysfunctions in his offspring. The research, conducted using mouse model…

Flinders University researchers have uncovered a biological process that could explain some stillbirths and pave the way for early detection and prevention.

A new study challenges what’s long been assumed about genetic variants thought to always cause inherited blindness. Investigators from Mass General Brigham used large public biobanks to determine that genes thought to cause inherited retinal degenerati…

Researchers from Nazarbayev University’s National Laboratory created the first large-scale, high-quality genotyping dataset of healthy Kazakh individuals—a landmark contribution to global population genomics and biomedical research.
