OA/TOF: The lost twin hypothesis

Dr Charles Shaw-Smith and Dr Bryn Webb give an update on their study which looks for specific tags or modifications seen on DNA in persons with OA/TOF, and, in particular, whether the presence of a DNA modification signature in affected individuals could support the idea that a ‘lost twin’ might be a factor in #OA / #TOF.
There is also a chance to get involved in the study yourself.
