From the time we are conceived and through old age, genetic mutations accumulate in all our tissues, eluding the body’s typically efficient DNA repair machinery and potentially affecting our health ...

Correlation does not equal causation. Every cancer cell has genetic mutations, but not all of those mutations necessarily ...

Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine report that a rare gene mutation that delays Alzheimer’s disease does so by damping inflammatory signaling in brain-resident immune cells in a preclinical study.

What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...
