In an important step toward more effective gene therapies for brain diseases, researchers have engineered a gene-delivery vehicle that uses a human protein to efficiently cross the blood-brain barrier ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. – The University at Buffalo team that discovered how a gene found in 75% of us protects against neurodegeneration has now found that this same gene enhances immune function as well. The ...

Differences in the expression and splicing of genes are important drivers of trait variation both within and between species. In humans, many of the foundational studies exploring this variation have ...
