News Release
Researchers have released a new high-quality collection of reference human genome sequences that captures substantially more diversity from different human populations than what was previously available.
News Release
NIH researchers compared a new genetic animal model of Down syndrome to the standard model and found the updated version to be enhanced.
News Release
NIH researchers have identified a gene that makes yeast resistant to a lethal toxin.
News Release
NIH researchers have developed and released an innovative software tool, called Verso, to assemble truly complete (i.e., gapless) genome sequences from a variety of species. The software makes the process of assembling complete genome sequences more affordable and accessible.
News Release
Researchers from NHGRI and the Undiagnosed Diseases Program (UDP) have discovered a new neurological condition characterized by issues with motor coordination and speech.
News Release
In a new large-scale genetic analysis, National Institutes of Health (NIH) scientists have found set of small RNA molecules, called microRNAs, in human pancreatic cells that are strongly associated with type 2 diabetes.
