For genetic algorithms using a bit-string representation of length~$n$, the general recommendation is to take $1/n$ as mutation rate. In this work, we discuss whether this is really justified for multimodal functions. Taking jump functions and the $(1+1)$

Phenotypic robustness can increase phenotypic variability after non-genetic perturbations in gene regulatory circuits [PDF]
Non-genetic perturbations, such as environmental change or developmental noise, can induce novel phenotypes. If an induced phenotype confers a fitness advantage, selection may promote its genetic stabilization. Non-genetic perturbations can thus initiate

Antipsychotic-induced weight gain: The role of the genetics
Parallel to the increasingly common use of second generation antipsychotics, some metabolic side effects started to draw attention, one of which is weight gain. Weight gain is an important problem both for general health and psychiatric morbidity.

Genetic Testing and Genetic Screening [PDF]
In recent years there has been an enormous expansion in the knowledge that may be gleaned from the testing of an individual's genetic material to predict present or future disability or disease either for oneself or one's offspring. The Human Genome Project, which is currently mapping the entire human gene system, is identifying progressively more ...

Clinical application of high throughput molecular screening techniques for pharmacogenomics. [PDF]
Genetic analysis is one of the fastest-growing areas of clinical diagnostics. Fortunately, as our knowledge of clinically relevant genetic variants rapidly expands, so does our ability to detect these variants in patient samples.
