Скачать или смотреть Epigenetics with Dr. Moshe Szyf (Part 2)

Epigenetics is the study of changes to your genes that don't change the underlying DNA. McGill University professor Dr. Moshe Szyf is a pioneering geneticist in this field. 

Research findings point to the possibility of identifying epigenetic changes that lead to disease.  If researchers can understand what went wrong in the "code" that leads to disease, then they can also develop drugs or other therapies that can reverse those harmful genetic changes.

Szyf and his research team are now working on mapping the epigenetic changes when a person develops cancer. The hope is that by identifying cancer genetic markers, doctors will be able to detect the disease earlier and perhaps even before the disease develops.
