What is the actual impact of music on the human being and the scope for scientific research in this realm? Compared to other areas, the study of the relationship between music and human biology has received limited attention. At the same time, evidence of music’s value in clinical science, neuroscience, and social science keeps increasing. This review article synthesizes the existing knowledge of genetics related to music. While the success of genomics has been demonstrated in medical research, with thousands of genes that cause inherited diseases or a predisposition to multifactorial disorders identified, much less attention has been paid to other human traits. We argue for the development of a new discipline, sensogenomics, aimed at investigating the impact of the sensorial input on gene expression and taking advantage of new, discovery-based ‘omic’ approaches that allow for the exploration of the whole transcriptome of individuals under controlled experiments and circumstances.

感觉基因组学和音乐刺激的生物学背景：音乐研究新时代的视角


音乐对人类的实际影响以及该领域的科学研究范围是什么？与其他领域相比，音乐与人类生物学关系的研究受到的关注有限。与此同时，音乐在临床科学、神经科学和社会科学中的价值的证据不断增加。这篇综述文章综合了与音乐相关的遗传学的现有知识。虽然基因组学的成功已在医学研究中得到证明，并确定了数千个导致遗传性疾病或多因素疾病倾向的基因，但对其他人类特征的关注却少之又少。我们主张发展一门新学科——感觉基因组学，旨在研究感觉输入对基因表达的影响，并利用新的、基于发现的“组学”方法，允许探索受控个体的整个转录组。实验和情况。
