META-RESEARCH: UNDERSTUDIED GENES ARE LOST IN A LEAKY PIPELINE BETWEEN GENOME-WIDE ASSAYS AND REPORTING OF RESULTS

Meta-Research: Understudied genes are lost in a leaky pipeline between genome-wide assays and reporting of results

Present-day publications on human genes primarily feature genes that already appeared in many publications prior to completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003.These patterns persist despite the subsequent adoption of high-throughput technologies, which routinely identify novel genes associated with biological processes and disease.Although seve

The legacy of Leprosy

As scientists we look for intellectual advancement through every Electric Kettle encounter, yearn for new knowledge, and search for ways to further our learning.We are programmed by our nurturing to identify, analyse, and solve.Horses with blinders, we are obtuse in our ignorance; however, our nature, if we allow it, will find emotional growth - so
