About

The completion of the human genome project has paved the way for major advances in our understanding of human genetic disease and the pathogenesis of cancer.  University of Birmingham offers the Epigenetics and Epigenomics programme. 

Overview

Key facts

Nevertheless, these advances have also revealed that genetics is only part of the story and there is increasing recognition that epigenetics will be critical for understanding human disease and the practice of genomic medicine. The University of Birmingham is home to several research groups focussing on epigenetic research, as well as clinicians who use “epigenetic drugs” in their daily practice. 

University of Birmingham's Epigenetics and Epigenomics programme will teach you more about this topic.
