Illustration by Getty Images The day when a simple blood test or saliva sample can identify your risk for medical conditions ranging from cancer to Alzheimer's disease seems tantalizingly close. But while advances in genetic testing increasingly give people critical information that may help prevent disease, genetics experts say sometimes the hype

Human population density and land use is causing changes in animal genetic diversity, according to researchers at McGill University. The loss of genetic diversity will hinder the ability of plant and animal populations to adapt to changing environments [Credit: McGill University] The findings reported in the journal Ecology Letters, show that environmental changes caused by humans are leading to changes in genetic variation in thousands of species of birds, fish, insects, and mammals. The…
