Description
How do the experiences of our parents affect us? Do they affect only our learned behaviors? Or can they somehow affect our genes as well? Can the changes in someone's body due to a traumatic experience be passed on to their children and grandchildren? From famine in Ukraine to smells and diet in rats and mice, today we discuss how epigenetics plays a role in altering the biology of future generations.
