More than 15 years after scientists first mapped the human genome, most diseases still cannot be predicted based on one’s genes, leading researchers to explore epigenetic causes of disease. But the ...

A single exposure to a toxic fungicide during pregnancy can increase the risk of disease for 20 subsequent generations—with inherited health problems worsening many generations after exposure. Those ...

From the beginning of time, humankind has searched for the secret to a long life. Now science may have found an answer, in the form of molecular augury. The pattern of chemical chains that attach to ...

Epigenetics is a field of research that investigates heritable information carried in the cell that is not directly coded by DNA. The prefix epi, which comes from both Latin and Greek, means "above" ...

The emerging science of epigenetics describes the way our lifestyle and environment influence our gene expression over time. This growing field of research is a hot topic right now because it has ...

Jose Eirin-Lopez leverages the power of epigenetics for more effective conservation strategies to protect endangered coral, dolphins, sharks, rays and more.

Researchers describe the impact of epigenetics on cancer treatment and how it has become a crucial tool to improve early detection, predict disease progression and become a target for new treatments.
