Human genetic diversity | Brain injury | Map of mouse cochlea

Largest catalog of human genetic diversity; biomarkers after brain injury; a developmental map of the mouse cochlea

June 9, 2020 Edition COVID-19 is an emerging, rapidly evolving situation, and we at NIH are doing everything we can toward the development of diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines. You can find the latest public health information from CDC at www.coronavirus.gov and the latest research information from NIH at www.nih.gov/coronavirus. Meanwhile, science continues to progress on many other fronts, and we will continue to try to bring you stories across a wide range of topics. Largest catalog of human genetic diversity Using DNA from over 140,000 people, researchers created a massive catalog of human genome data, along with tools to understand it. Blood proteins associated with persistent symptoms after brain injury After mild traumatic brain injury, military veterans with higher blood levels of a protein released by injured neurons were more likely to report long-term symptoms. Researchers create developmental map of mouse cochlea Scientists mapped how sensory cells develop in the mouse cochlea, a key sound-sensing structure in the inner ear. The findings could help lead to therapies for some forms of hearing loss.
