Abstract

In the current era of genomics, which carries the promise of personalised medicine, interest is also growing in the epigenome and how your DnA might not necessarily be your destiny.

So what is epigenetics? the Hongerwinter (hunger winter) of 1944 in Nazi-occupied Netherlands affected over 4 million people. It was ascribed to a combination of Nazi revenge for the reluctance of the Dutch people to aid the Axis war efforts and an unusually harsh winter: humankind and nature joined forces to inflict immense suffering.
