Baboons as a Model to Study Genetics and Epigenetics of Human Disease

1 Jan 2013

Abstract excerpt

A major challenge for understanding susceptibility to common human diseases is determining genetic and environmental factors that influence mechanisms underlying variation in disease-related traits. The most common diseases afflicting the US population are complex diseases that develop as a result of defects in multiple genetically controlled systems in response to environmental challenges. Unraveling the...
