Current research aims to identify the functional mechanisms by which copy number variation cause diseases. Although preliminary findings suggest that the presence of copy number variants might be ...

Copy number variations (CNVs) have been linked to dozens of human diseases, but can they also represent the genetic variation that was so essential to our evolution? More recently, both aneuploidy ...

But measuring CNVs in cells from an individual can be tricky. For a number of years, researchers relied on fluorescently tagged microarray probes that attached to sections of genes; locations where ...

A significant advancement in knowledge of the link between cognition and genetics has been made thanks to a study led by Université de Montréal graduate students Guillaume Huguet and Thomas Renne, ...

The human genome can have some quirky features, like copy number variation. When this happens, an individual carries, or loses bits of DNA, which ... | Genetics And Genomics ...
