What is epigenetics?
If we want to understand epigenetics, we first need to consider our genome – our DNA. Nearly all the cells in our body contain an identical copy of our genome, which contains the instructions to build and repair us. Yet, despite having the same set of instructions, cells from different tissues and organs can be very diverse. They may look completely different and have very different functions.
