We are all unique, but despite this, human beings are 99.9% genetically similar to each other, and large chunks of our genome perform similar functions across the animal kingdom. Chimpanzees and even domestic cats are genetically similar to humans. This means that the tiny 0.1% of your genetic code is critical in identifying who you are, what makes you unique from someone else, and what diseases you could develop.

Our DNA is a mystery, but how our genes make us who we are and is it possible to change your genetic code to cure diseases?
