Study argues to move beyond ‘reading genes’ — focus on conserved neural-development networks in humans to improve early screening and identify therapeutic leads.

Researchers have mapped the 3D organization of genetic material of key developmental stages of human retinal formation, using intricate models of a retina grown in the lab. The findings lay a ...

The human brain's remarkably prolonged development is unique among mammals and is thought to contribute to our advanced learning abilities. Disruptions in this process may explain certain ...

The thalamus serves as a central hub for relaying sensory and motor information, and its development is governed by a tightly regulated interplay of signalling pathways and gene regulatory networks.

Cold Spring Harbor, NY – Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press (CSHL Press) has announced the appointment of new editorial leadership at its renowned journal, Genes & Development. Professor Andrew ...

To generate successful gene therapies that are capable of delivering nucleic acids to specific cells and tissues, scientists must carefully design their products. They can employ either recombinant ...

Every cell in an organism carries an identical set of genetic instructions within its DNA. However, what determines whether a cell develops as a neuron, a muscle, or any other specific cell type lies ...

Genetics is just one of several factors thought to influence personality disorder development. Life experiences, family dynamics, coping mechanisms, and social learning may all be contributing factors ...

Gene therapy is back in the fast lane. With tough questions around delivery, vector design, redosing, analytics, and scale-up, the 9 th Gene Therapy Development Summit 2026 is the deep dive the field ...

Researchers have discovered that blocking both genes brings about a significant reduction in tumor size. The study reveals important differences between tumors in male and female Drosophila and how ...
