      <title>Individuals and populations differ in gene activity levels, not just genes</title>
      <description>Much like how a person's genetic code differs from other individuals, the level at which those genes are activated in the body differs from one person to another, scientists have learned. And though some of those differences in gene activity are seen between different populations -- Asians versus Europeans, for instance -- more of those variations are due to individual-level factors, further obscuring the biological meaning of "race." </description>
