Genetics

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2010
For many years karyotyping has been a successful tool to identify chromosome aberrations in congenital malformations. It has proven to be a highly reliable technique for identifying numerical chromosome changes and structural chromosomal rearrangements, such as deletions, duplications, translocations, or inversions.

Genetics and the Origin of the Genetic Code

Origins of Life, 1974
The genetic code has been analysed by a method similar to that used by Gregor Mendel. The current codon catalogue is shown to be symmetrically subdivisible into two discrete subcatalogues of eight quartets each by classifying the quartets as monocoding (for one amino acid only) vs heterocoding (for two amino acids or for amino acid plus nonsense).

Genetic Improvement of Genetic Programming

2020 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC), 2020
GISMOE BNF grammar based GI is applied to optimise run time of the tree interpreter in the fastest single computer floating point genetic programming system, GPavx. Up to two fold speed up is obtained. Performance varies with tree size. The GI version of Singleton’s C++ GPquick is demonstrated on random trees of up to 79 million opcodes on Intel AVX512

Genetics and genetic testing for glaucoma

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2017
In recent decades, investigators have identified numerous genes and genetic factors that cause or contribute risk for glaucoma. These findings have increased our understanding of disease mechanisms, provided us with new diagnostic tools, and may allow for development of improved therapies for glaucoma. However, genetic testing is most useful when it is

Genetic algorithms for genetic mapping

1998
Constructing genetic maps is a prerequisite for most in-depth genetic studies of an organism. The problem of constructing reliable genetic maps for any organism can be considered as a complex optimization problem with both discrete and continuous parameters. This paper shows how genetic algorithms can been used to tackle this problem on simple pedigree.

Giornale italiano di nefrologia : organo ufficiale della Societa italiana di nefrologia, 2016
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is the most frequent genetic disease, characterized by progressive development of bilateral renal cysts. Two causative genes have been identified: PKD1 and PKD2. ADPKD phenotype is highly variable. Typically, ADPKD is an adult onset disease.

Genetics in the art and art in genetics

Gene, 2015
"Healing is best accomplished when art and science are conjoined, when body and spirit are probed together", says Bernard Lown, in his book "The Lost Art of Healing". Art has long been a witness to disease either through diseases which affected artists or diseases afflicting objects of their art.

The Genetics of Schizophrenia is the Genetics of Neurodevelopment

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1991
Genes are now accepted as being important in the aetiology of schizophrenia (Gottesman & Shields, 1982; McGuffinet al,1987), and over the past decade the emphasis in genetic research has shifted away from genetic epidemiology to searching the chromosomal DNA for the genes themselves. Despite this increasing technical sophistication, the application
