Precision medicine in GU cancers is evolving with biomarkers like BRCA1/2 mutations influencing PARP inhibitor use and pembrolizumab's tumor-agnostic approval for microsatellite instability. FGFR3 ...

Genetic testing identifies germline mutations, while genomic testing analyzes somatic mutations in tumors, influencing treatment options. Broader testing criteria are expanding access to genetic ...

What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...

A seminal study from researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and their collaborators in the United Kingdom, Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands, and Iceland has uncovered a new genetic ...
