New software detects disease-causing gene mutations

Software finds "needle in a haystack" e.g. in the diagnosis of rare diseases

10-Sep-2020 - A serious illness is often the result of a single genetic defect. But given that two healthy people already have around three million differences in their genetic make-up, it is no easy task to pick out the one disease-causing deviation from the many harmless gene variants. Scientists at the ...
