Showing results for "The Gene" in Health & Wellness

Our genes are everywhere! It defines who we are and has the power to determine the outcome of many vital things in our lives. Everything that is alive has a genome; a unique piece of code of over 100,000 genes that unlocks the door to an incredible treasure of information. Whether it is a dog, a cat, a tree or a human being - we all possess this unique code and live our lives with it. Many of us don't realize it is there and know little about the power that it holds to inform the world more about your life. We also don't realize it has an incredible value both monetary as well as educational ...

Most of the 25,000 genes we possess are the same for all of us. Compatibility genes are those that vary most from person to person and give each of us a unique molecular signature. These genes determine both the extent to which we are susceptible to a vast range of illnesses and the different ways each of us fights disease.

First coined by Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene, a meme is any idea, behavior, or skill that can be transferred from one person to another by imitation. Susan Blackmore shows that once our distant ancestors acquired the crucial ability to imitate, a second kind of natural selection began, a survival of the fittest amongst competing ideas and behaviors. Ideas and behaviors that proved most adaptive-making tools, for example, or using language - survived and flourished, replicating themselves in as many minds as possible.

A vibrant young Hispano woman, Shonnie Medina, inherits a breast-cancer mutation known as BRCA1.185delAG. It is a genetic variant characteristic of Jews. The Medinas knew they were descended from Native Americans and Spanish Catholics, but they did not know that they had Jewish ancestry as well. The mutation most likely sprang from Sephardic Jews hounded by the Spanish Inquisition. The discovery of the gene leads to a fascinating investigation of cultural history and modern genetics by Dr. Harry Ostrer and other experts on the DNA of Jewish populations.

In the new essays collected here, an interdisciplinary group of scholars asks age-old questions about the nature and well-being of humans in the context of a revolutionary new biotechnology - one that has the potential to change the genetic make-up of both existing people and future generations. Welcoming listeners who study related issues and those not yet familiar with the formal study of bioethics, the authors of these essays open up a conversation about the ethics of gene editing.

Just 45 years ago, the age of gene modification was born. Researchers could create glow-in-the-dark mice, farmyard animals producing drugs in their milk, and vitamin-enhanced rice that could prevent half a million people going blind every year. But now GM is rapidly being supplanted by a new system called CRISPR or "gene editing". Using this approach, scientists can manipulate the genes of almost any organism with a degree of precision, ease and speed that we could only dream of ten years ago.

A tiny mutation on the X chromosome can shape a family’s history. Passed down from a “carrier” parent to a child, fragile X syndrome is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability and autism. Beyond that—and a rarity among genetic disorders—some fragile X carriers not only transmit the mutation, but also experience related conditions themselves.

The Handbook is a show about life, leadership, and health. What more could one show possibly offer? My name is Gene, I'm the host. I have over 10+ years of policing experience, and because I'm a real glutton for punishment, I'm a PhD student as well. I'm not cool enough to be referred to as "Dr." yet, but I'm close. Here's the deal. Most episodes will have a guest who I feel is worthy to discuss a topic that could benefit the audience. A discussion about finances? Boom. Financial advisor. A discussion about leadership? Boom. Police Captain. You get the idea. Again...life, leadership, and ...
