Ines's expert point of view about the ENCODE project -London Science Museum

I am very privileged to have been chosen as a science expert for the London Science Museum. My first contribution relates to the exhbition about the ENCODE project. The ENCODE project papers have been published in Nature. The results of the project show that 80% of our DNA is made up of genetic switches and what we used to think as "junk DNA" is actually millions of switches. Only 2% of the genome is actually genes, thus we are all much more flexible, in terms of gene expression and epigenetics, than previously thought
