STRUGGLES for independence generally originate in emotion. In the case of Iceland the emotion that feeds the present movement for independence is in turn based to a greater extent than usual on literature and history. Economic reasons come in too, of course, and there are many other contributing causes, but these have been correspondingly less important in Iceland than among most nations engaged in struggles to regain or win separate statehood.

An international study group led by researchers of Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have identified how three novel genes cause neurodevelopmental disorders.

The study captured genetic variants at extremely low levels, and dozens of patients began new therapies as a result of the findings. Researchers from Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) recently discovered that extremely thorough “deep sequencing” of the genome in tissue samples and cell-f

Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) recently discovered that extremely thorough "deep sequencing" of the genome in tissue samples and cell-free DNA of patients with potentially life-threatening vascular anomalies captured several genetic variants related to disease that were not captured with conventional genetic sequencing methods.

Scientists have found a variation in the JAK2 gene — which is involved in a signaling pathway implicated in autoimmune diseases — that can lead to IBD.
