A new study reveals how transposable elements (TEs) expanded gene regulation during brain evolution, shaping modern neural development networks.

As cell and gene therapy leaders gathered in Maryland to discuss accelerating clinical trials in children, one “cutting edge” session focused on the need to expedite more bespoke gene editing ...

A Yale research team has created a new computer tool that can pinpoint when exactly genes turn on and off over time during brain development — a finding that may one day help doctors identify the ...

Comparison of neuronal differentiation in wild type embryonic stem cells (upper image) and embryonic stem cells where KAT6B has been deleted (lower image). Green staining shows the presence of the ...

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 ...

Human brain cells, classified into different groups according to gene expression (each color represents a group), are mapped back to their original locations in the human brain. A detailed analysis of ...

National Eye Institute (NEI) scientists have found that the way the retina metabolizes glucose directly controls which genes get switched on and off in light-sensing photoreceptors. The findings ...

What are the first steps that chart the path for a cell to become a blood cell, neuron cell, or pigment cell? Scientists have developed increasingly powerful tools to track those changes, but one ...
