Is Lifetime Cancer Risk Determined Before Birth?

Two female scientists in lab coats and safety glasses are studying epigenetics. One uses a dropper to add a chemical to a test tube held by the other. In the background are a DNA double helix, histones and chromatin structure, and environmental factors that affect the epigenome.
