From Mendelian genetics to 4D genomics -- Genes and genomes represent different biological entities -- Genome chaos and macrocellular evolution -- Chromosomal coding and fuzzy inheritance -- Why sex? Genome reinterpretation detrones the queen -- Breaking the genome constraint -- The genome theory -- The rationale and challenges of molecular medicine -- Epilogue (or why we did what we did). |
| Summary |
This book builds a case for genes and genomes as distinct biological entities, and positing that the genome, rather than individual genes, defines system inheritance and represents a clear unit of selection for macro-evolution. In authoring this thought-provoking text, Dr. Heng invigorates fresh discussions in genome theory and helps readers reevaluate their current understanding of human genetics, evolution, and new pathways for advancing molecular and precision medicine. |
