Forty years ago, a postdoctoral researcher named James McGrath who would go on to spend more than three decades as a clinical geneticist and research scientist at Yale, made a discovery that advanced ...

Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder that can affect the blood’s ability to clot properly. In most cases, people inherit the gene variations for hemophilia in an X-linked recessive inheritance pattern.

Investigating context-specific genetic associations can lead to deeper understanding of the biological mechanisms underlying human traits. With this cross-journal Collection, the editors at Nature ...
