Researchers have evaluated for the first time the effect of a short/middle-term consumption of a mixture of tree nuts (almonds, hazelnuts and walnuts) on sperm DNA methylation patterns in healthy individuals reporting eating a Western-style diet.

A new study has shown pregnant women with obesity could reduce the health risks for their infants through improved diet and more physical activity.

A new COVID-19 test kit combines virus amplification with a CRISPR-Cas system for effective SARS-CoV-2 detection.

Unrelated mutations, when present in the blood, can lead to false positive results in men with advanced prostate cancer who are undergoing liquid biopsies.

The advent of genome science has given researchers an unprecedented ability to understand the root causes of a host of conditions. Scientists in the UConn School of Medicine have used this technology to identify a suite of genes and regulatory elements critical to normal heart development.

Investigations of deceased COVID-19 patients have shed light on possible lung damage caused by the virus and may explain why patients suffer from long COVID.

In this article, we bring together resources from the across the site on gas chromatography, how it works, its pairing with downstream techniques and what its applications are.

On December 31, 2019, the first cases of a novel coronavirus were identified in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. Here, we curate a collection of news and content related to what has become the COVID-19 pandemic.

Wastewater-based surveillance can detect cases of COVID-19 efficiently in large populations, both early and in asymptomatic individuals. This buys public health official precious time to act.

Large-scale testing and contact tracing are central to efforts to control the pandemic. This relies on diagnostic tests that can rapidly, accurately and reliably detect SARS-CoV-2.

Academic and industry groups around the world have been working tirelessly to develop innovative diagnostics to identify infected individuals and help to slow the spread of the virus. Here, you'll find a list of our latest COVID-19 testing-related coverage.

To learn more about the PANDIS model, its aims, and how it can be used to help diagnose and treat patients suffering from a range of conditions spanning from cancers to “mystery chronic diseases”, Technology Networks spoke with PANDIS’s founders, Professor Gilles Guillemin and Catherine Stace.
