GENETIC PREDISPOSITION TO DISEASE

This study aims to understand if the natural bacteria (microbiome) in a person's gut and breast tissue can predict who gets an infection after breast reconstruction surgery. Researchers will compare patients who receive antibiotics after surgery to those who do not, tracking them…

This study aims to find early warning signs of pancreatic cancer by tracking people at higher risk. Researchers will collect health information and blood samples from 1250 participants over time. The goal is to spot patterns that could lead to earlier detection and better surviva…

This large research project aims to collect genetic information from 100,000 newborns in China over five years. The goal is to build a national database of newborn genes to understand how common certain inherited diseases are. This information will help create better standards fo…

This study is testing a new online platform called Nest, designed to help young adults (ages 18-39) who have had genetic testing for cancer risk. The platform provides patients and their doctors with updated information about their genetic results and recommended care plans. Rese…

This study aims to create a detailed genetic and molecular profile of healthy people in the Czech Republic. Researchers will compare these 'healthy' profiles to those of people with various diseases to look for patterns and connections. The goal is to build a reference database t…

This study aims to build a massive research network to understand how our genes influence health, disease risk, and treatment response. It will enroll up to 2 million adults to collect genetic and health data. The goal is to discover genetic factors that could improve future medi…

This research has two main goals. First, it aims to understand which genes are active in people with high blood pressure in Thailand. Second, it tests whether practicing a specific 4-7-8 breathing technique daily for three months can help lower blood pressure and reduce inflammat…

This study is testing a virtual support center called VIGOR that helps community hospitals provide advanced genetic care to sick newborns. The goal is to give hospitals without specialized genetics teams access to expert advice, education, and treatment options. Researchers want …

This study aims to find out if the bacteria and chemicals in the vagina can help detect ovarian cancer earlier. Researchers will collect one-time vaginal swab and stool samples from 50 healthy volunteers without cancer or known genetic risk. These samples will be compared to thos…
