Here we find the strength of this branch through research processes to find out the main cause of the disease to find appropriate solutions to it:

Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, "The Sister Study is a cohort of 50 884 US women who had a sister with breast cancer but were free of breast cancer themselves at enrollment. Study participants completed examinations which included measurements of height and weight, and provided blood samples. Blood DNA methylation data generated with the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation27 BeadChip array covering 27,589 CpG sites was available for 871 women from a prior study of breast cancer and DNA methylation. To identify differentially methylated CpG sites associated with BMI, we analyzed this methylation data using robust linear regression with adjustment for age and case status. For those CpGs passing the false discovery rate significance level, we examined the association in a replication set comprised of a non-overlapping group of 187 women from the Sister Study who had DNA methylation data generated using the Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array. Analysis of this expanded 450 K array identified additional
