Genetic interindividual variability influences nutritional requirements

Approximately 0.1%: that is the average genetic difference between two individuals. This small percentage is responsible for the variations of certain physical traits, such as eyes, hair, and height, but also for differences in our susceptibility to certain diseases and our capacity to absorb vitamins and phytomicronutrients, involved in the prevention of chronic disease.

Groundbreaking study finds certain brain disorders are genetically related

A large-scale, global study conducted by the Brainstorm Consortium has shown that certain brain disorders are genetically related.

	Machine Learning in Genetics Machine learning and artificial intelligence aim to develop computer algorithms that improve with experience. These algorithms can be used to help with the analysis of huge data sets including data from genomic sequencing.

	Global study shows that certain brain disorders are genetically related A global study conducted by the international "Brainstorm Consortium" has, for the first time, analyzed the genome of 1.1 million patients with psychiatric and neurological disorders and has shown that certain brain disorders are genetically related.

	Researchers develop 3D map of the human genome Researchers from the University of Illinois have developed a way of mapping the positions of genes within cells to understand more about how the genome is organized.

	Individual hypertensive responses to antibiotics may vary depending on genetic makeup and gut bacteria Individual variations in genetic makeup and gut bacteria may explain the different effects of antibiotics on blood pressure, a new rat study suggests. The findings are published ahead of print in Physiological Genomics.
