GENETIC PREDISPOSITION TO DISEASE

This study looks at the bacteria and natural chemicals in the vagina to find new ways to detect ovarian cancer early. Researchers will collect vaginal swabs and stool samples from 50 healthy volunteers (people with ovaries but no known cancer or genetic risk). These samples will …

This project will sequence the genes of 100,000 newborns in China over five years. The goal is to create a large genetic database, improve testing for inherited diseases, and train counselors. Participants are healthy newborns of Chinese parents, and the study focuses on collecti…

This study looks at how antibiotics change the bacteria in the gut and breast after mastectomy with implant reconstruction. Researchers want to see if certain bacteria make infections more likely. About 200 women with breast cancer or a strong genetic risk will provide tissue and…

This study is following 1,250 people who are at higher risk for pancreas cancer, such as those with new diabetes, pancreas cysts, or a family history. Researchers will collect blood samples and health information over time to find early warning signs of the disease. The goal is t…

This study aims to create a reference database of genetic and molecular profiles from at least 1,000 healthy volunteers in the Czech Republic. Researchers will then compare these profiles to those of people with various diseases to find genetic differences linked to illness. No t…

This study is creating a huge network of researchers and healthcare organizations to collect genetic and health information from over 2 million adults. The goal is to better understand how genes affect disease risk, treatment response, and overall health. Participants will provid…

This study tests a virtual genome center (VIGOR) to help sick newborns in community hospitals get advanced genetic testing and expert advice, even without specialized staff on site. It will enroll 750 babies with suspected genetic conditions from NICUs that serve low-income and m…

This study has two parts. First, it looks at genes that may be linked to high blood pressure in Thai people. Second, it tests if a simple breathing exercise called 4-7-8 breathing can help lower blood pressure. The study involves 200 adults with high blood pressure in Thailand.

This study is testing a new online platform called Nest for young adults aged 18-39 who have had genetic testing for cancer risk. The platform gives patients and their doctors up-to-date information about genetic findings. The goal is to see if the tool is easy to use and helps p…
