Whole genomes from hundreds of thousands of people reveal new complexity in how the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes interact, which may influence how cells produce energy.
A blood disorder increasingly common in older ages, called clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), doubles a person’s risk of chronic liver disease.
New results from the FinnGen consortium include previously unknown genetic risk factors for many debilitating diseases, potentially facilitating therapeutic development
Using high-coverage whole-genome sequencing and improved analytic approaches, scientists have re-sequenced samples from the project to improve the publicly accessible resource.
