Episode Overview
- Exploration of the impact of behaviors and the environment on gene function
- Insightful conversation with Dr. Chloe Wong on epigenetics and generational trauma
- Discussion on the potential for developing clinical tools for prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment
- Engaging listener messages sharing personal experiences and reflections
- Thought-provoking insights into the reversible and modifiable aspects of epigenetics
The reversible and modifiable aspects of epigenetics I think that is something to keep in mind because we are in control of things that we do, what we experience.
Ever wondered if the trauma your grandparents experienced could affect your own mental health? Will Young dives into this intriguing topic on 'The Wellbeing Lab' by chatting with Dr. Chloe Wong, a senior lecturer in epigenetics at King's College London. Epigenetics is the study of how our behaviors and environment can change the way our genes work, and it's a field that's turning heads in the scientific community. Dr.
Wong breaks down complex concepts into relatable ideas, making it clear how our genes can be influenced by our surroundings and even the experiences of our ancestors. They explore the fascinating idea that trauma might be passed down through generations, impacting not just us but our descendants too. This episode isn't just for science buffs; it's for anyone curious about the hidden layers of our genetic makeup and how they play a role in our mental health.
Listeners will also hear personal messages that add a warm, human touch to the scientific discussion. If you're interested in the intersection of genetics, mental health, and family history, this episode is a must-listen.
