Omar Abdel-Wahab is a physician-scientist who studies the role of epigenetics in blood cancers. If you’ve ever known a set of identical twins, you might have been struck by what they didn’t have in ...
Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field of study that focuses on the heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes are caused by ...
For years, scientists have been fascinated with how DNA mutations impart phenotypic changes. However, epigeneticists including Andrew Pospisilik think mutations are responsible for only a portion of ...
Physician-scientist Omar Abdel-Wahab explains epigenetics, a growing field based on the study of genetic changes that are not part of the DNA code, and how it relates to cancer. Genetic inheritance is ...
Salk Institute researchers find new mode of epigenetic targeting, showing for the first time that genetic sequences can direct new DNA methylation patterns in plants LA JOLLA (November 21, 2025)—All ...
Wildlife conservation is a race against time — too often, a losing one. Typically, by the time scientists detect signs of species decline, populations have already collapsed. Genetic diversity is ...
While hoarding behavior has traditionally been understood through psychological and environmental lenses, recent research suggests that epigenetics may play a significant role in the development and ...
