• systemic pathology
  7 March 2004

  Definition: Systemic pathology is the pathology of systems in the human body.
  The classical textbook of pathology "Robbins & Cotran Pathologic Basis of Disease" is divided in two main parts: " general pathology " and " systemic pathology ".
  We gave to systems pathology another meaning.
  Examples
  cutaneous pathology
  digestive pathology
  head and neck pathology
  pulmonary pathology
  genital pathology male genilal pathology female genital pathology

• epigenetics
  20 November 2003

  WKP
  Definition: Epigenetics refers to the stable and heritable changes in gene expression that are not directly attributable to DNA sequence alterations. These changes may affect expression of a gene or the properties of its product. Important epigenetic mechanisms include DNA methylation, changes in chromatin configuration, imprinting, changes in protein confirmation, and RNA-associated silencing. These epigenetic mechanisms provide an “extra” layer of transcriptional control that (...)

  Human genetic variation
  Global human genetic variation is greatly influenced by geography, with genetic differentiation between populations increasing with geographic distance and within-population diversity decreasing with distance from Africa.
  In fact, these ’clines’ can explain most of the variation in human populations. Despite this, population genetics inferences often rely on models that do not take geography into account, which could result in misleading conclusions when working at (...)
