The same pathogen can often elicit very different responses from different people. Scientists sought to understand more about what causes these individual differences. They found that both our genomes ...

In a recent study published in Nature Genetics, researchers created a comprehensive atlas to elucidate the combined impacts of genetic inheritance and environmental exposures on the human immune ...

Salk scientists discover that different people can have distinct responses to the same infection depending on how their genetics and life experiences have shaped their immune cell function. The ...

Although mental disorders have multifactorial causes, genetics can explain some of them, yet this field remains largely unexplored in terms of guiding diagnoses and treatments. In the largest study of ...
