Stefan Fröhling, M.D., and Hartmut Döhner, M.D. The cause of chromosomal abnormalities remains poorly understood. Studies of various types of leukemia have shown that certain environmental and ...

An AI tool identifies cells that can shed light on the earliest origins of cancer through a game of molecular ‘laser tag’. The human body relies on precise genetic instructions to function, and cancer ...

Using a new technique, long-read sequencing, that allows DNA to be analyzed in much greater detail than before, a team of Swedish clinicians and researchers has discovered an unexpected complexity in ...

A new prenatal test developed by researchers at Columbia University Fertility Center can determine if a fetus or embryo has the right number of chromosomes at a fraction of the time and cost of ...

Human egg cells are often prone to chromosomal errors. As women age, the error rate increases sharply — and can contribute to infertility, pregnancy loss, and ...

Sex chromosome abnormalities (SCAs), also known as X or Y chromosome abnormalities, can lead to dysplasia of sexual organs in both males and females 1. SCAs are relatively common, with an estimated ...

Automated cytogenomic analysis has long been limited by narrow task scope, high annotation demands, and poor robustness to real-world complexity. Here, we introduce CHROMA, the first single-chromosome ...

Translocations, in genetics, happen when chromosomes break and the pieces attach to other chromosomes. This mixing of genetic material has important results. The resultant chromosomes are lacking in ...

“Therefore, EDA and aneuploidy rates represent two independent factors in determining the number of euploid embryos available for transfer and the overall likelihood of ART success.” “Therefore, EDA ...

Researchers have developed a new prenatal test that can determine if a fetus or embryo has the right number of chromosomes at a fraction of the time, cost of other genetic tests. A new prenatal test ...
