Epigenetics and Environment Heating Up as DNA Topics

Environmental doctor Anne Marie Fine of Scottsdale, Ariz. was one of the first physicians to adopt genetic tests as part of her practice in 2002. Recently, she gave a brief introduction to the role epigenetics plays in human diversity at the 12th annual Conference on Diversity in Vancouver, British Columbia. Her paper with Donald N. Yates, "Epigenetics and the Autosomal DNA of Human Populations: Clinical Perspectives and Personal Genome Tests," should appear soon, but in the meantime you can watch a short video of her epigenetics presentation (5:37). Epigenetics is beginning to loom as a much more important factor in multigenerational health than mere genetics. We would be interested in your comments!
