Understanding Genetics

The field of genetics is remarkable in that it holds the key to our past and future. Comprised of DNA sequences, our genes demonstrate how life forged pathways and evolved into the creatures and plants we know and love on Earth today. Strings of genetic code can also hold power over us in the form of viruses, mutations leading to cancer, and more; however, we are beginning to harness genetics to fight back using remarkable leaps in genetic science, producing vaccines and powerful gene therapy. In this bookazine, we’ll take you through the world of genetics to help you understand this crucial avenue of science. Enjoy!
