Theodore Friedmann, MD, Director. “The concept of fixing a broken gene is now entrenched in medicine,” says Theodore Friedmann, MD, director of the University of California–San Diego Program in Gene Therapy. “ [It’s] a real field, with many ups and downs behind it and surely more ahead. Its technology is evolving, slowly but certainly ...
Jul 7, 2021 · Seven novel pathogenic and two likely pathogenic variants associated with nine recessive diseases were discovered. The comprehensive profile of recessive diseases identified in this study enables the design of cost-effective carrier screening programs specific to the Vietnamese population.

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a group of genetic disorders, all of which cause bone fragility. OI has high genetic heterogeneity , that is, many different genetic mutations lead to the same or similar sets of observable symptoms ( phenotypes ).
Dec 11, 2019 · Here we analyze complete mtDNA genome sequences and ~2.3 Mb sequences of the male-specific portion of the Y chromosome from the Kinh and 16 minority populations, encompassing all five language...
To date, genetic studies for Vietnamese people mostly rely on genetic information from other populations. Building a Vietnamese human genetic variation database is a must for properly interpreting Vietnamese genetic variants. To this end, we sequenced 105 whole genomes and 200 whole exomes of 305 unrelated Kinh Vietnamese (KHV) people.
