We’ve seen AI algorithms create mostly-believable pictures of people’s headshots, works of art, news articles, and even pokémon. But now a team of scientists is taking things a step further, with an ...

Some people’s faces — or even just a photo of them — hint at the genes they carry. And now, an algorithm can predict not only whether they carry a genetic mutation, but which genes were mutated. The ...

Scientists at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) have revealed a previously overlooked layer of genetic variation that ...

Computerized brain training can hold off cognitive decline and dementia, research suggests, and researchers have been quite successful at devising ways to diagnose Alzheimer’s earlier and earlier.

The number of people living with dementia worldwide was estimated at 57 million in 2021 with nearly 10 million new cases recorded each year. In the U.S., dementia impacts more than 6 million lives, ...

A study that analyzed the genetic code of a quarter of a million U.S. volunteers found more than 275 million entirely new variants that may help explain why some groups are more prone to disease than ...
