EpiGenie Review: Epigenetic Cancer Therapies and DiagnosticsOctober 10, 2011Nearly everyone has been affected by cancer in some way or another. That’s why we’re so stoked to see all of the amazing breakthroughs in cancer knowledge coming from epigenetic research these days. Will it lead to treatments or cures anytime soon? Who knows, but it sure seems like we’re on the right track. Just […]
Podbat Let’s You Fly Through Epigenomic AnalysisSeptember 14, 2011How much would you pay to be able to analyze epigenomic data sets for multiple modifications, from various sources and different experiment types simultaneously? Before you answer, check out this new software tool, Podbat (Positioning database and analysis tool) that lets you do all of that and more…for free! When we first heard the name, […]
Imprinted Brain Theory with Dr Christopher BadcockSeptember 13, 2011Dr. Christopher Badcock explains key epigenetic concepts of the Imprinted Brain theory and how it might change the way we think about mental disorders. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina.

EpiGenie Antibodies in Epigenetics ReviewSeptember 13, 2011Antibodies. You can’t live with ‘em; you can’t live without ‘em. Even though they can sometimes drive epigenetic scientists nuts, top-notch antibodies continue to have a critical role in several epigenetic applications used in labs everyday. We’ve featured several articles that try to make life a little easier for those who work with antibodies. Take […]
Prenatal Environmental Exposures, Epigenetics, and Health with Dr Frederica PereraSeptember 9, 2011Dr. Frederica Perera touches on how the environment around us can make a big impact very early in life and stick with us for a long time. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina. Environmental Exposures […]
Human Transgenerational Responses with Dr Marcus PembreySeptember 9, 2011Dr. Marcus Pembrey provides a nice background on his experiences with imprinting and how it might provide a means for transgenerational adaptation.
