A Genome Wide Association Study on propensity to motion sickness published by 23andMe gives interesting results, shows validity for self-reported phenotypic information and underlines the value of the model developed by ...

An extension of newborn screening to genome sequencing is now feasible but raises a number of scientific, organisational and ethical issues. This is being explored in discussions and in several funded trials, in order to ...

Comme on l’a dit et répété dans ces colonnes [1–3], la valeur prédictive des profils génétiques à base de Snip vendus par 23andMe, Navigenics et autres « entreprises DTC » (direct to consumer) est très faible pour ne pas ...

The accumulation of extensive repositories linking phenotypic and genetic information, together with new computation methods, makes it possible to derive polygenic scores for susceptibility to common diseases that turn out ...

Risk assessment for a cancer type with moderate heritability can be accurately performed using a relatively small number of SNPs detected by GWAS analyses to calculate a polygenic risk score (PRS) that has definite clinical ...
