#genetic

It's perfectly obvious that there is some genetic factor that distinguishes humans from other animals and that it is language-specific. The theory of that genetic component, whatever it turns out to be, is what is called universal grammar. ↗

For simplicity one can think of the + class as having one extra base at some point or other in the genetic message and the - class as having one too few. ↗

When I turned 30, due to my father's heart history and my family genetics, I vowed to start seeing a cardiologist every year and just really be proactive and take my own heart health into my own hands. ↗

My father and I made genetics history. We were the first African-Americans and the first father and son anywhere to have their genomes sequenced. ↗

With our knowledge of modern-day genetics, we realize that it was possible for God to place the potential for all people throughout history into the genes of Adam and Eve when He created them. ↗

If you wanted to dissect the structure of living cells, genetic analysis was an extremely powerful method, so my interest turned to that. ↗

I suspect any worries about genetic engineering may be unnecessary. Genetic mutations have always happened naturally, anyway. ↗

As a consequence, geneticists described evolution simply as a change in gene frequencies in populations, totally ignoring the fact that evolution consists of the two simultaneous but quite separate phenomena of adaptation and diversification. ↗

The major novelty of my theory was its claim that the most rapid evolutionary change does not occur in widespread, populous species, as claimed by Most geneticists, but in small founder populations. ↗

People have freaked out when I tell them that my dragons are scientifically based... what else can you call a genetically engineered life form? ↗
