Prospects for Epigenetic Epidemiology (2009)
Foley, Debra L., Craig, Jeffrey M., Morley, Ruth, Olsson, Craig J., Dwyer, Terence, Smith, Katherine, ...
Epigenetic modification can mediate environmental influences on gene expression and can modulate the disease risk associated with genetic variation. Epigenetic analysis therefore holds substantial...

Singhal, Atul, Morley, Ruth, Cole, Tim J, Kennedy, Kathy, Sonksen, Patricia, Isaacs, Elizabeth, ...
BACKGROUND: Breastfeeding has been reported to benefit visual development in children. A higher concentration of docosahexaneoic acid (DHA) in breast milk than in formula has been proposed as one...

Birthweight and coronary heart disease in a cohort born 1857-1900 in Melbourne, Australia (2006)
Morley, Ruth, McCalman, Janet, Carlin, John B
Background The widely observed association between birth size and risk of later coronary heart disease (CHD) has not been examined in an impoverished pre-20th century birth cohort. Methods Birth...

Regression models for twin studies: a critical review (2005)
Carlin, John B, Gurrin, Lyle C, Sterne, Jonathan AC, Morley, Ruth, Dwyer, Terry
Twin studies have long been recognized for their value in learning about the aetiology of disease and specifically for their potential for separating genetic effects from environmental effects. The...

Maternal calcium supplementation and cardiovascular risk factors in twin offspring (2004)
Morley, Ruth, Carlin, John B., Dwyer, Terence
Background There is evidence that maternal calcium supplementation may result in lower offspring blood pressure. We hypothesized that maternal calcium supplementation also influences other...
