– Study findings to be presented at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting find hereditary risk for gastric and lung cancers, among others, underscoring the need for broader genetic testing – Genetic testing ...

The great majority of how we understand human disease, and attempt to cure it, derives from mice genetically fashioned to be prolific breeders, docile and easy to handle – all qualities that have made ...

With around 280 million people worldwide living with a genetic disease, it’s crucial that expectant mothers and families seek genetic counseling as early as possible. “It’s not just about getting ...
