A recent publication from researchers at the University of Kentucky explains the importance of identifying and understanding how differences...

A team of investigators from Texas Heart Institute, Texas Children’s Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine uncovered new insights into the mechanisms underlying the progression of congenital heart...

By studying individual cardiac cells from heart failure patients, researchers have identified molecular signatures that point to biological mechanisms of...

While lower vertebrates can repair their adult hearts after a heart attack, mammals — including humans — cannot. The ability to regenerate dead muscle tissue in mammalian hearts disappears just a few...

Vertebrate evolution was accompanied by two rounds of whole genome duplication followed by functional divergence in terms of regulatory circuits and gene expression patterns. As a basal and slow...

While neurons and glial cells are by far the most numerous cells in the brain, many other types of cells play important roles. Among those are cerebrovascular cells, which form the blood vessels that deliver oxygen...

An interdisciplinary expert in statistics and genomics, Jingyi “Jessica” Li will write the first book to clarify common confusions in genomics data analysis by connecting cutting-edge genomics research...

If cancerous cells started wreaking havoc in your body, like terrorists in a building, your immune system would act like a SWAT team to combat the enemy. But what if the building entrance were...
