A new computational machine learning method developed by computational biologists can help researchers discover spatial patterns of gene expression in diseased tissue. In disease research, it's ...

Scientists have uncovered a powerful genetic switch that helps some of the body’s most important immune cells grow up properly and keep our organs healthy. The switch, called MafB, guides immature ...

Researchers can easily assess what genes are being expressed in a tissue by using a method like RT-PCR that precisely quantifies gene activity, or western blots that identify protein levels. But those ...
