The $10 million initiative will include scientists from the University of California's campuses, as well as from governmental and nongovernmental organizations.

The researchers identified genes that specifically extend the lifespan of neurons and found genes that increase the number of neurites in the brain.

Researchers sequenced edits made at 1,656 on-target genomic sites in primary human T cells and used the data to train the model.

Using brain samples from individuals with or without multiple sclerosis, researchers detected declining projection neuron levels and related immune cell shifts.

With funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Biohub will help implement metagenomic sequencing for infectious disease projects in 10 countries.
