Quick N' Nerdy

On Epigenetics


Listen Later

Check in with Mario and Luigi (aka Cody Bayles and Dan Phillips) as they get nerdy with the topic of genetics.  Have you ever experienced a disproportionate response to something that left you confused.  If so, Epigenetics and the intergenerational transfer of gene expression may be at play.  In this episode, Mario and Luigi explore how our environments and social interactions influence what genes are expressed in our bodies, including how quickly that occurs, how lasting it can be, and just how influential it is for us and our relatives.  Check out more information below:
