Nature & Nurture: A Dynamic Interplay of Genetics

Most of the brain proteins provide the scaffolding on which its cells are built, and each protein is a gene that provides information. Over the last several decades, researchers have mapped the sequence of genes that comprise a full set of instructions for constructing a human being called the human genome. Learn about how proteins are made, gene expression, epigenetics, and pharmacogenetics.
