Amgen subsidiary deCODE Genetics has identified new risk factors and genes associated with clonal hematopoiesis, a precursor state to blood cancer. In the results of a study published Nov. 6 in Nature ...

In disease research, it's important to know gene expression and where in a tissue the expression is happening, but marrying the two sets of information can be challenging. "Single-cell technologies, ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen, and their collaborators have discovered six novel genes with rare germline variants that associate with cancer risk. The findings are published today in Nature ...

Sequence variants that protect against pericarditis have been discovered at a genomic locus encoding interleukin-1 immune cytokines. A newly approved drug treatment for pericarditis inhibits these ...
