Explore chromosomal inversions—the tiny flips of DNA that can ripple through health, fertility, and evolution. We’ll explain paracentric vs pericentric inversions, how they arise, what they mean for meiosis and offspring, and why most carriers are unaffected even as these flips shape pregnancy outcomes and development. Join us as we connect theory to real cases and current research, from common structural variation to striking examples like the 17q21.31 region.
