Everything I Didn't Learn From Taking A Personal Genome Test | The Awl

theawl.com — “It took us ten years and $3 billion to map the human genome, and when the first working draft appeared in 2000, it came with lots of predictions: We were going to crack the genetic code for disease, predict heart attacks and cure cancer. Twelve years later, that isn't how it worked out. Instead of dramatic scientific breakthroughs, the most successful outgrowth has been a crop of VC-fueled personal genetics companies. The concept is simple: for a fee, they’ll tell you everything science knoView full resource at theawl.com

Prostaglandin Discovery May Lead To Hair Loss Treatment For Men And Women | Bernstein Medical - Center for Hair Restoration

bernsteinmedical.com — “Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania, who were investigating the biological causes of androgenetic alopecia or common genetic hair loss, have discovered that levels of a certain inhibitor protein, called Prostaglandin D2 (PD2), are elevated in bald areas on the scalp. This discovery could be an important breakthrough in developing a medical hair loss treatment that regulates the production of the protein, or one that blocks it from attaching to its receptor protein.View full resource at bernsteinmedical.com
