Abstract:
:Epigenetics has recently evolved from a collection of diverse phenomena to a defined and far-reaching field of study. In this Essay, we examine the epistemology of epigenetics, provide a brief overview of underlying molecular mechanisms, and suggest future challenges for the field.

abstract::Despite all modern advances in medicine, an effective drug treatment of obesity has not been found yet. Discovery of leptin two decades ago created hopes for treatment of obesity.

However, three recent papers, two in Cell (Vinc...
