...shown potential for many applications before it saw full development, according to the paper's senior author Pardis Sabeti, a Harvard assistant professor of organismic and evolutionary biology and associate member of the Broad Institute of Harvard...
Previously, using an approach similar to CMS, Sabeti’s lab had localized a mutation in a gene called EDAR that may be responsible for Asians having less body hair. Sabeti also cited genes influencing lactose intolerance and malaria resistance as areas her team has already researched and hopes to further shed light on with...
...keep pursuing these signals, we think we can identify a lot of mutations that can confer resistance to infectious disease,” Sabeti said...
Pardis C. Sabeti, an assistant professor of organismic and evolutionary biology who received a New Innovator Award, said she will use the funds to further her research into the Lassa fever which she describes as “the most deadly disease known...
...when clearly that isn’t true,” Newton said. “The goal was to educate people about race and genetics, and to get people talking about sensitive issues, which is always difficult,” she added. Professor Scott V. Edwards and Pardis Sabeti from the Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology lent the scientific perspective, explaining the mechanics of this sort of gene mapping as well as the background behind the Genographic Project, which Edwards helps advise. In addition to analyzing the genetic material of the general public, the organization collects samples from...
