Results generated with the use of microarrays should be properly described and deposited in one of the public databases prior to review. We examine the last two years of the journal's publications in an attempt to ensure that community standards for data deposition are met.
Common genomic structural variants predispose to deleterious de novo genomic rearrangements. Understanding how they do so will require population studies across the continuum of genomic variation and ethical discussion of the nature and uses of human variation.
Recent studies and a new database indicate that investment in genetics could bring practical health benefits to the states of the Eastern Mediterranean.
