Where in that link does it point to the actual peer-reviewed research showing drastic changes in gene regulation caused by falun gong practises?
I see your referring to the previous article.I don't know if it has been peer reviewed just yet. We cannot say something is not scientific just because it has not been peer reviewed can we? Peer review began in 1665 but people still made considerable scientific breakthroughs before peer review.
Here is some similar research done:
1.
U.S.-based researchers in basic sciences have begun to show interest in studying
Falun Dafa. Dr. Lili Feng, professor of immunology and molecular biology at Baylor
College of Medicine in Texas, examined the life span and function of white blood
cells, neutrophils in particular. Her preliminary results showed that the in-vitro life
span of neutrophils from Falun Dafa practitioners was 30 times longer than that of
control groups and they also functioned better.
2.
Dr. Guohua Liu, a biophysicist from U.C. Davis, reports that the contraction force of
cultured cardiac cells was increased 175% after several minutes' exposure to the
energy field generated by Falun Dafa practitioners while they were practicing the
exercises. While these surveys and studies strongly indicate the existence of the health
and anti-aging effects, they shed no light on the mechanism at work.

Although Peer Review is designed to sift the wheat from the chaff, peer review has it's faults also:
