AP - Children inherit about 30 mutated genes from each parent, fewer than had been thought, but enough in at least one case to pass on inherited illnesses, according to a first detailed look at the blueprint for human life in a family.
AFP - American scientists have for the first time unlocked the genetic code of an entire family, and made a startling discovery -- that parents pass on fewer mutations than previously thought.
LiveScience.com - Mapping the connections among brain cells could someday prove as
revolutionary as mapping the human genome. But tracing each synaptic
connection between neurons - essentially a manual effort so far - has
proven painstakingly slow. To approach a thorough mapping, researchers
will have to develop a computer-automated process.
AFP - Green members of the European parliament stood en masse and held up placards Tuesday in protest against the EU Commission approval of the cultivation of genetically modified potatoes.
