Can You Lose Weight?

Ask Your Microbiome

16-Sep-2021 - The strongest associations with weight loss success or failure – independent of BMI – are found in the genetic capacity of the gut microbiome. These new findings open the door to diagnostic tests that can identify people likely to lose weight with healthy lifestyle changes and those who might ...

Researchers map gene circuits that control cellular responses to metals

Possible applications to understanding bases for genetic diseases

02-Jun-2006 - Scientists at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) announced that they have developed a model of how cells respond to changes in composition of six different kinds of metals in their environment. While this study had a narrow focus, the implications of the results, and the systems biology ...
