It was not until she turned one in 2021 that she was officially diagnosed with PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (Pros), which is a group of conditions caused by a gene mutation that affects one ...

"Whilst doing that, a student in my team, Yuyang Chen, came across a specific variant in a very small gene called RNU4-2 ... patient database for the RNU4-2 mutation. "Within 20 minutes he was ...

This reduced gene pool was then further reduced by diseases. The most famous example is the potato late blight outbreak of the 1840s, which caused harvests to collapse and led to catastrophic ...

It is not even merely its ancestor. Belgium is the custodian of its gene pool. What Jambo ASBL and FDU-Inkingi represent is not fringe dissent — it is the curated continuity of genocidal ...
