People are contributing to genetic studies in record numbers, and scientists around the world are sharing the data with one another to speed progress.
It was made possible by 50,000 people from 30 countries, who contributed their DNA to genetic research on schizophrenia.
But our genetic results suggest that in schizophrenia, the elimination process may go into overdrive.
Scientists now know that the living and working conditions that we all are part of have more than twice the impact on our health than does our genetic code, and living and working conditions, the structures of our environments, the ways in which our social fabric is woven together, and the impact those have on our behaviors, all together, those have more than five times the impact on our health than do all the pills and procedures administered by doctors and hospitals combined.
That study illustrates what my friends in public health often say these days: that one's zip code matters more than your genetic code.
We're also learning that zip code is actually shaping our genetic code.
As you might know, proteins are large biological molecules that perform different functions within our body, like catalyzing metabolic reactions or responding to stimuli or replicating DNA, but before a protein is expressed or produced, relevant parts of its genetic code present in the DNA are copied into the messenger RNA, so this messenger RNA has instructions on how to build a specific protein, and potentially it can build hundreds of proteins, but the one that tells them when to build them and how many to build are microRNAs.
As a photographer, I try to reach beyond the differences in our genetic makeup to appreciate all we have in common with every other living thing.
So what this is all about is that a recent study at University College London found that 58 percent of the variation between different students and their GCSE results was down to genetic factors.
How could our genetic makeup be so similar to animals and yet we look so different?

The piglet then carries organs whose genetic makeup hopefully wouldn't be rejected by the human immune system.
It is also a platform that we can do further genetic modification on to solve the immunology problem.
In recent years, millions of people around the world have come to believe that there's something sinister about genetic modification.
Now, genetic modification is not new; virtually everything we eat has been genetically modified in some manner.
Now, to create these varieties, breeders have used many different genetic techniques over the years.
Breeders have also used other types of genetic techniques, such as random mutagenesis, which induces uncharacterized mutations into the plants.
It wasn't until the 1990s that scientists finally uncovered the genetic basis of resistance.
Breeders there developed a rice variety carrying the Sub1 gene using another genetic technique called precision breeding.
Now, many people don't mind genetic modification when it comes to moving rice genes around, rice genes in rice plants, or even when it comes to mixing species together through grafting or random mutagenesis.
Many people thought that the Hawaiian papaya was doomed, but then, a local Hawaiian, a plant pathologist named Dennis Gonsalves, decided to try to fight this disease using genetic engineering.
Cornell and Bangladeshi scientists decided to fight this disease using a genetic technique that builds on an organic farming approach.
In the genetic approach, scientists cut the gene out of the bacteria and insert it directly into the eggplant genome.
Now, I've given you a couple examples of how genetic engineering can be used to fight pests and disease and to reduce the amount of insecticides.
My final example is an example where genetic engineering can be used to reduce malnutrition.
But golden rice is virulently opposed by activists who are against genetic modification.
I explained the genetic engineering, the process of moving genes between species, has been used for more than 40 years in wines, in medicine, in plants, in cheeses.
After 20 years of careful study and rigorous peer review by thousands of independent scientists, every major scientific organization in the world has concluded that the crops currently on the market are safe to eat and that the process of genetic engineering is no more risky than older methods of genetic modification.
Nature is a much more chaotic interplay of genetic changes that have been happening all the time anyway.
