Northwestern University biophysicists have developed a new computational tool for identifying gene combinations underlying complex illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, and asthma. Unlike single-gene ...

Outcomes for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) are continually improving as more effective treatments become available. Granular data sets of this unique population are lacking, and the ...

A new study analyzing the association between an individual's genetics (genotype) and their observable characteristics resulting from the interaction of genetics and the environment (phenotype), ...

The characteristics of an organism emerge through complex interactions of its genetic make-up and the effects of the environment. This article discusses this terminological distinction in genetics - ...

Plants are affected by complex genome×environment×management interactions which determine phenotypic plasticity as a result of the variability of genetic components. Whereas great advances have been ...
