Emergenesis: Genetic traits that may not run in familes. [PDF]
Traits that are influenced by a configuration--rather than by a simple sum-- of polymorphic genes may not be seen to be genetic unless one studies monozygotic twins (who share all their genes and thus all gene configurations) because such “emergenic ...

Congenital anomalies from a physics perspective. The key role of "manufacturing" volatility
Genetic and environmental factors are traditionally seen as the sole causes of congenital anomalies. In this paper we introduce a third possible cause, namely random "manufacturing" discrepancies with respect to ``design'' values.

Researches on the Twin Prime Problem [PDF]
Twin prime number problem is mainly the structure of the twin prime numbers and whether there are infinitely many prime twins group. In this paper, by constructing a special cluster number set(see formula(2.3)in the paper), proves that the number of set number of the first n columns set the intersection of the minimum number of q is decision of the ...

Class, genes, and rationality: A gene–environment interaction approach to ideology
Abstract Variation in political preferences is increasingly understood to stem from both environmental influences and genetics. Research in political psychology has argued that a pathway for genetic effects on ideology is via cognitive performance, showing a sizable genetic overlap between the traits.

Beyond DNA: Epigenetics and Proteomics in Forensic Science [PDF]
The use of genetic evidence in criminal cases is well established and has improved the public opinion and credibility of forensic science. However, several shortcomings associated with current genetic profiling techniques exist. Scientific research aimed
