The immune system depends on molecular alarms that detect danger inside cells. One of these alarms is STING, short for ...

As we age, the genes in our cells accumulate more mutations. This is one of the contributory factors to age-related diseases and the aging process. However, in a new study published in Science ...

A central goal of human genetics is to learn how genetic variants impact the cellular and molecular phenotypes that underpin human diseases. Genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) are commonly ...

Researchers have refined a powerful DNA sequencing tool that can uncover hidden mutations that occur naturally in our bodies as we age. In the largest study to date, they have used the tool to provide ...
