Epigenetics is the study of how certain genes are activated without modification at the DNA sequence level, resulting in genetically similar individuals having different clinical outcomes. As contemporary medicine increasingly aims to personalize the medical approach to a patient's genetic profile, the factors that can affect which genes are expressed also increase in importance and relevance to the clinician. This text from experts will give the clinician in Reproductive Medicine a reliable grounding in current thinking and research on this fast-moving topic, with many clinical implications.

Cristina Camprubí is Founder and Director of GenIntegral, a genetic and epigenetic advisory service for professionals and patients. The author of more than twenty scientific papers published in high impact factor journals, and several book chapters, she participates as teacher/speaker in many postgraduate and specialist courses such as the Dexeus Forum Update in Obstetrics, Gynaecology and Reproductive Medicine. Joan Blanco is Professor at the Unitat de Biologia Cellular (Facultat de Biociències), Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Bellaterra (Cerdanyola del Vallès), Spain.
