It’s an understandable assumption, and genetics does play a role in cardiovascular risk. But a growing body of research suggests that DNA sequence alone tells only part of the story, and increasingly, scientists believe it may be the smaller part.

Cardio Diagnostics Holdings (NASDAQ: CDIO), a medical technology company built around epigenetics-based cardiovascular testing, has positioned this science at the center of its diagnostic platform.
