What is a Gene? A Two Sided View [PDF]
The need to account for all currently available experimental observations concerning the gene nature, has reshaped the concept of gene turning it from the essentially mechanistic unit, predominant during the '70s, into a quite abstract open ...

Environmental Exposures during Puberty: Window of Breast Cancer Risk and Epigenetic Damage. [PDF]
During puberty, a woman's breasts are vulnerable to environmental damage ("window of vulnerability"). Early exposure to environmental carcinogens, endocrine disruptors, and unhealthy foods (refined sugar, processed fats, food additives) are hypothesized ...

Comparison of sequencing-based methods to profile DNA methylation and identification of monoallelic epigenetic modifications. [PDF]
Analysis of DNA methylation patterns relies increasingly on sequencing-based profiling methods. The four most frequently used sequencing-based technologies are the bisulfite-based methods MethylC-seq and reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS),
