Genomic screening reveals hidden health risks of patients Reviewed Geisinger Health SystemMar 20 2025 Genetic information collected through research studies like Geisinger’s MyCode Community Health Initiative can provide important-and previously unknown-information to participants about their risk for disease. In an evaluation of the MyCode study, published this week in JAMA Network Open, more than 175,000 participants...

With generative AI, MIT chemists quickly calculate 3D genomic structures
A new approach, which takes minutes rather than days, predicts how a specific DNA sequence will arrange itself in the cell nucleus. Anne Trafton|MIT News Publication Date: January 31, 2025 Press Inquiries Caption: This image shows the three-dimensional genome structures of several chromosomes reported in a Dip-C study, which were used to train the new...
One genomic test can diagnose nearly any infection
Peer-Reviewed Publication University of California – San Francisco Next-generation metagenomic sequencing test developed at UCSF proves its effectiveness in quickly diagnosing almost any kind of pathogen. A genomic test developed at UC San Francisco to rapidly detect almost any kind of pathogen – virus, bacteria, fungus or parasite – has proved successful after a decade...
Genomic analysis is important even for ultra-hypermutated tumors prior to immune therapy
New research from The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC-James) underscores the importance of genomic analysis of rare malignant tumors that are genetically unstable and have high numbers of gene mutations. Killer T cells surround a cancer cell. Credit: NIH OSUCCC-James investigators analyzed the cancer genomes of nine metastatic tumors and the...
