A team of scientists from MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) has discovered a previously unknown mechanism that controls the way the “ON” and “off” gene switching genes during embryonic development. Published today in the developmental cell, their study sheds light on how various types of cells are produced in developing embryos. The research was […]
A study conducted by the Department of Sports and Health Sciences at the Jyväskylä University in Finland showed that men with genetic predispositions supporting higher muscle strength had a lower risk of death due to cardiovascular diseases, regardless of their level of physical activity during free time or other factors related to lifestyle. The low […]
