Copy number variation (CNV) has recently been identified as a major cause of structural variation in the genome, involving both duplications and deletions of sequences that typically range in ...

Copy number variations (CNVs) have been linked to dozens of human diseases, but can they also represent the genetic variation that was so essential to our evolution? More recently, both aneuploidy ...

A significant advancement in knowledge of the link between cognition and genetics has been made thanks to a study led by ...

The human genome can have some quirky features, like copy number variation. When this happens, an individual carries, or loses bits of DNA, which ... | Genetics And Genomics ...

Thanks to DNA mapping, these discoveries pave the way for a broader understanding of the ways in which genetic alterations ...

But measuring CNVs in cells from an individual can be tricky. For a number of years, researchers relied on fluorescently tagged microarray probes that attached to sections of genes; locations where ...
