Who we have to entrust genetic material – and who is not

Date:

All countries in Europe have a gene project – except Austria. But the catch -up started. A project starts on Friday, in which genetic material from all over Austria is analyzed. The threads run together in Tyrol.

We can’t get through our genes. They are the recipe for which we are cooked and largely determine our external appearance and our characteristics. Of course, environmental factors also play a role, but how essential the genetic requirement can be seen in twin studies, for example. Even if identical twins grow up separately, they have often explained the same preferences as Johannes Zschocke, director of human genetics at the Medical University of Innsbruck.

It is also anchored in our genome how likely we can get certain diseases, such as cancer. It is interesting that there are regional differences.
