Paul Andersen explains the concepts of genetics. He starts with a brief discussion of the nature vs. nurture debate and shows how epigenetics blurs this distinction. He explains how differentiation of cell types results from the inactivation of certain... -
Adaptability Explorer David Shenk There are few authors who could write important books on subjects as diverse as Alzheimer's, chess, genetics and information overload. Yet David Shenk's background as a contributor to National Geographic, the BBC and..... -
Can we make lifestyle choices that will influence our genetic code -- and that of our children? YES! Environmental factors can alter the way our genes are expressed. Join Dr. Ron Hunninghake and Dr. Anne Zauderer as they discuss this emerging field of ... -

Our genes influence the way we absorb and metabolize micronutrients. Nutrigenomics looks at the influence genetic variation has over micronutrient absorption/metabolism and the biological consequences of this dynamic relationship. Our diet also influen... -
While environment and family history are factors in healthy aging, genetic variants play a critical and complex role in conferring exceptional longevity, according to a new study by a team of researchers from the Boston University Schools of Public Hea...
