Transitioning from Forensic Genetics to Forensic Genomics [PDF]
Genes, 2017 Due to its support of law enforcement, forensics is a conservative field; nevertheless, driven by scientific and technological progress, forensic genetics is slowly transitioning into forensic genomics. With this Special Issue of Genes we acknowledge and appreciate this rather recent development by not only introducing the field of forensics to the ...

Transition probabilities for general birth–death processes with applications in ecology, genetics, and evolution [PDF]
, 2011 A birth-death process is a continuous-time Markov chain that counts the number of particles in a system over time. In the general process with $n$ current particles, a new particle is born with instantaneous rate $\lambda_n$ and a particle dies with ...

Renal genetics in transition [PDF]
, 2020 The work in this thesis makes the case for a genetics-first approach in CKD. Though there is a high prevalence of monogenic kidney disease (MGKD), it is underdiagnosed in daily practice. This while an adequate MGKD diagnosis provides patients with life-long improvements in care and well-being.

Stochastic hypothesis of transition from inborn neutropenia to AML: Interactions of cell population dynamics and population genetics [PDF]
Frontiers in Oncology, 2013 We present a stochastic model of driver mutations in the transition from severe congenital neutropenia to myelodysplastic syndrome to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The model has the form of a multitype branching process.

The genetics of obesity in transition.
Collegium antropologicum, 2012 Recent advances in human genetics have revealed a number of genes influencing the susceptibility to obesity and related conditions, but it is likely that their contribution to disease is contingent on numerous environmental factors. As the obesity epidemic has occurred over a relatively short period of recent history, use of gene-by-year of birth ...

Association between Human Genetic Variants and the Vaginal Bacteriome of Pregnant Women
mSystems, 2021 Knowledge about the influence of host genetics on the vaginal bacteriome in pregnancy is still limited. Although a number of environmental and behavioral factors may exert influences on the structure of vaginal bacterial communities, the vaginal ...

Micro-Coevolution of Genetics Rather Than Diet With Enterotype in Pigs
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022 Based on the characteristic of low diarrhea in native Chinese breeds, we introduce the enterotype model for piglets, which is a new perspective to decipher the colonization and the transition of the gut microbiota among various pig breeds.
