我們可以從因遺傳基因得病或沒得病的人身上知道些什麼？有著最具遺傳性的疾病，卻只有一些家族成員會發病，而帶著一樣基因的其他人卻逃過一劫。斯蒂芬·福蘭德建議我們開始研究那些依然健康的家族成員。聽聽看「恢復力計畫」是如何為了收集遺傳基因資料而耗費極大努力，而這計畫也許可以幫助解碼遺傳性疾病。

挖掘潛藏的基因英雄

The greatest breakthroughs in understanding disease may come from those who never get sick, even when their genes predict otherwise. By searching for people who carry genetic risks yet remain healthy, researchers have found dozens of unexpected heroes—individuals with hidden mutations that act as natural protection. The Resilience Project has already screened over half a million genetic samples, revealing that some people resist diseases like AIDS or heart disease despite high risk factors. This crowd-sourced, global approach could spark new therapies for conditions from childhood disorders to Alzheimer's.
