Introducing Epigenetics

Cath Ennis is a grant writer and project manager in Vancouver, Canada, with a background in genetics, genomics, and cancer research. She contributes to The Guardian on epigenetics and other themes, has co-written a textbook on stem cell science, and can be found online at enniscath.com.

The most intriguing subject in biology now is epigenetics, which is advancing our understanding of how and why we inherit particular features, develop diseases, age, and evolve as a species.

Introducing Epigenetics introduces us to genetics, cell biology, and the exciting science of epigenetics, which is rapidly closing knowledge gaps and allowing us to make significant improvements in medicine. We'll look at what identical twins may teach us about the epigenetic effects of our environment and experiences, why specific genes are "turned on" or "switched off" at different stages of embryonic development, and how scientists reversed cell specialization to clone frogs from a single gut cell. The book is among the best books on bioinformatics you should read.

Cath Ennis and Oliver Pugh dissect the double helix in Introducing Epigenetics, looking at how the epigenetic building blocks and messengers that interpret and change our DNA serve to create us.
