Happy #DNADay! At Mayo Clinic, we're looking beyond the usual suspects in the genome. A recent discovery showed how a single noncoding variant — previously undetectable — played a key role in disease. Read the story:

A new Mayo Clinic study reveals distinct brain cell changes in Tourette syndrome, including a 50% reduction in interneurons, stress in motor neurons and inflammation in immune cells. Findings may help explain the underlying biology of involuntary tics.
