The contribution of genetics to the variability in people’s metabolism has remained largely unknown. This is, in part, because genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and ...

A new study, published today in Nature Genetics, created the largest genetic map of human metabolism, revealing new insights on the role of metabolites in health and disease and creating a blueprint ...

Genetics at scale: Researchers analyzed data from over 78,000 participants to map genetic regulation of blood proteins, revealing new drug targets and repurposing opportunities. Sharper cosmic tools: ...

How do our genes determine our appearance and our susceptibility to disease? This question is central to biomedical research, ...

Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health traits. By probing regions of DNA previously linked to disease, the work has ...
