Abstract excerpt
Our knowledge of regulatory mechanisms of gene expression and other chromosomal processes related to DNA methylation and chromatin state is continuing to grow at a rapid pace. Understanding how these epigenomic phenomena vary between individuals will have an impact on understanding their broader role in determining variation in gene expression and biochemical, physiological, and behavioural phenotypes. In this...
