Genome and Epigenetics
Our capacity to understand biological systems is restricted by our ability to identify, manipulate and control the genetic information. However, in the last years, great technical advances have extended our capabilities to predict, influence, and to “comprehend” genomic information in virtually every living organism. The ability to identify disease and deleterious genetic and epigenetic traits will reshape biological and biomedical research, and will have implications in how this technical and scientific revolution and the information it will generate may be used in decision-making, about how diseases are diagnosed and treated, and in the decision-making process in reproductive biology
