A new atlas profiles gene activity early on during development in the human fetal brain.

An expanding collection of websites compiles up-to-date information on the characteristics of people with mutations in genes linked to autism and other conditions.

Training community members to help families access care increases the likelihood that children from low-income and minority groups will obtain diagnostic evaluations.

An online tool could help researchers limit the number of animals needed to power their studies.

Researchers have devised a way to use fluorescent sensors to detect many different signaling molecules in a cell at once.

Researchers have created the most complete macaque reference genome to date and used it to catalog genetic variation among hundreds of monkeys.
