Decades-old work picked up by Google’s DeepMind leads to global scientific breakthrough

A researcher's work from 20 years ago has helped to crack one of biology’s biggest mysteries.

No simple answers for the Finnish and Russian Karelia allergy contrast: Methylation of CD14 gene

The methylation variation in the promoter region of CD14 gene did not explain the asthma and allergy contrast between Finnish and Russian Karelian children

Immunogenetics of Parasitic and Bacterial Disease

Here we focus on more recent well-powered genome-wide association studies, including malaria, leprosy, tuberculosis, and visceral leishmaniasis

Reference genotype and exome data from an Australian Aboriginal population for health-based research

This data set provides a useful reference point for genomic studies on Aboriginal Australians

Candidate gene analysis supports a role for polymorphisms at TCF7L2 as risk factors for type 2 diabetes in Sudan

Multiethnic associations between T2D and SNPs at TCF7L2, CAPN10 and HHEX extend to Sub-Saharan Africa, specifically Sudan

The rare and undiagnosed diseases diagnostic service – application of massively parallel sequencing in a state-wide clinical service

The Rare and Undiagnosed Diseases Diagnostic Service refers to a genomic diagnostic platform operating within the Genetic Services of Western Australia

The genetic associations of acute anterior uveitis and their overlap with the genetics of ankylosing spondylitis

These findings also suggest that variants in ERAP1 have a differential impact on the risk of AAU when compared with AS, and hence the genetic risk for AAU...

Polymorphism in a lincRNA Associates with a Doubled Risk of Pneumococcal Bacteremia in Kenyan Children

Identified an association between polymorphisms in a long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA) gene (AC011288.2) and pneumococcal bacteremia

Wound healing genes and susceptibility to cutaneous leishmaniasis in Brazil

Here we examined single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these genes as risk factors for cutaneous (CL) and mucosal leishmaniasis (ML), and leishmaniasis...
