Remembrance of epigenomes past

Nature Genetics 49, 815 (2017).
doi:10.1038/ng.3890

Understanding of how epigenetic information is acquired, processed and transmitted through cell division, and potentially across generations, remains limited. Mechanistic studies aiming to elucidate the molecular underpinnings of these phenomena may provide insights into development, disease susceptibility and evolution.
