Rakhi Special: Do I Share The Same Genetic Risks As My Sibling? | Health Wealth, Ep 05

Siblings can be your protector. They can also help you sneak out at night, get first dibs on all your new gifts, advice you endlessly and take on a great many more roles. But have you ever considered them to also be your early warning system for health risks? In this biology masterclass we learn about the very basics of human DNA, genetic inheritance and mutations that cause diseases. Emotional support, growth and love can be availed through both blood and chosen siblings. But biological siblings remain great links to the past, and as it turns out, also to the future. *** Featuring Dr Rakesh Mishra, director, Tata Institute for Genetics and Society Listen in!
