This pioneer scientist mapped the human placental methylome. That is, all of the DNA methylation marks on the placenta, and has associated changes with neurodevelopmental disorders. She’s also demonstrated the influence of toxins and insufficient folate. Of the many implications inherent in her work, very exciting to me is the fact that we are moving toward in utero diagnostics using mom’s blood (ie, a standard blood draw). My hope is one day we will identify issues and address them all before baby is born!
