Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good beginning Good start to what will hopefully be a long series. Basic primer on what DNA is and how it works - and how things can impact people differently.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Enlightening I found Sam Kean's presentation outstanding. His presentation of the issues relating to cancer and dna easy to follow. I have taken a number of DNA courses but this one really opened my eyes to P53.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Genetics of Cancer Was expecting a more in depth presentation. The presenter was good and a story to exemplify the concepts was satisfactory as well. I understand this was just a piolet.

Overview

Understand how cancer is a genetic disease that can stem from both hereditary flaws and DNA mutations, as you look through science and history with researcher and author Sam Kean.
The Genetics of Cancer

01: The Genetics of Cancer

We don’t normally think of cancer as a genetic disease, but it is. After Professor Kean provides the foundation of DNA, he details examples of how genetic flaws can be inherited, such as the BRCA genes, or how DNA mutations may not necessarily be inborn but rather caused by exposure to a chemical or to environmental hazards.
