Medical professionals in China’s Jiangsu province have uncovered the genetic sequence behind a rare case of type P blood group – even rarer than the subtypes such as “dinosaur blood” or “panda blood.” ...

Human blood already comes in a bewildering variety of types, but researchers have now identified a new one so rare that only three people on the planet are known to carry it. The finding exposes just ...

Numerous genetic studies have identified many risk variants for type 2 diabetes (T2D)—but which genes and proteins are ...

Large-scale genetic analysis has helped researchers uncover the interplay between cancer-driving genetic mutations and inherited genetic variants in a rare type of blood cancer. Researchers from the ...

In 2011, a woman from the French overseas region of Guadeloupe underwent routine tests before a surgery. Strikingly, doctors could not identify her blood group, which was so unique that they did not ...
