Genome-wide identification of inter-individually variable DNA methylation sites improves the efficacy of epigenetic association studies
Epigenomics: Finding DNA modifications that predict disease Patterns of chemical modifications on DNA can predict the risk of certain diseases, but the challenge is knowing where to look for them.
