Ever wondered what could go awry when your body copies a 6 billion letter message (i.e. your #genome) 1E16 times over your lifetime? If so, checkout our #preprint on the origins and functional effects of #mutations throughout the human lifespan.

Postzygotic mutations (PZMs) begin to accrue in the human genome immediately after fertilization, but how and when PZMs affect development and lifetime health remains unclear. To study the origins...
