Computer screening identifies that the widely prescribed vitamin A derivative all-trans retinoic acid increases both longevity and late-life health in a powerful genetic model system.

Up-to-date computational pipeline characterizes G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) repertoires in the closest relatives of metazoans, providing a framework to investigate the evolutionary origins and ancestral functions of key metazoan signaling pathways.

A genomic analysis shows that the evolution of genome size and gene content among fungal pathogens in the class Sordariomycetes varies depending on their interactions with hosts and vectors.

Analyzing population-level chromatin accessibility data shows added benefit over utilizing only gene expression data in elucidating the genetic mechanism of disease-associated variants.

Cross-species functional genomics identify ribosomal protein genes as key regulators of cardiomyocyte proliferation and heart development, implicating them as candidate modifiers for HLHS and revealing new avenues for therapeutic discovery.
