Researchers from the Danish psychiatry research-project iPSYCH have contributed to identify 33 new genetic variants which, as it turns out, play a role in bipolar disorder. To achieve this, they have examined DNA profiles from 413,000 people.

Date Time UC Davis MIND Institute to host inaugural stem cell, gene therapy conference This fall, the UC Davis MIND Institute will host a brand-new conference focused on the development of effective genetic and stem cell treatments for children with neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism, fragile X syndrome, Rett syndrome, Dravet syndrome, Angelman syndrome and others. The inaugural Stem Cell and Gene Therapy for Neurodevelopmental Disorders Conference will be Sept. 24-25. Abstracts are ...

New COVID-19 testing strategy can quicken test results for healthcare workers Fast turnaround of COVID-19 test results for healthcare workers is critical. Investigators have now developed a COVID-19 testing strategy that maximizes the proportion of negative results after a single round of testing, allowing prompt notification of results. The method also reduces the need for increasingly limited test reagents, as fewer additional tests are required. Their strategy is described in the Journal of...

Philadelphia [US], April 26 (ANI): While it is known that fast turnaround of COVID-19 test results for healthcare workers is critical, a team of investigators have now developed a coronavirusus testing strategy that maximises the proportion of negative results after a single round of testing, allowing prompt notification of results.

Complex patterns of genetic ancestry can provide insights into genetic, environmental factors of many diseases The complex patterns of genetic ancestry uncovered from genomic data in health care systems can provide valuable insights into both genetic and environmental factors underlying many common and rare diseases--insights that are far more targeted and specific than those derived from traditional ethnic or racial labels like Hispanic or Black, according to a team of Mount Sinai researchers....
