Ep. 7: Epigenetics

The idea of ​​epigenetics has changed since it was first proposed in 1939 by Conrad Waddington as a way to reconcile the conflicting theories of preformist and epigenetic schools, but the definition of epigenetics has changed, it's still the subject of intense controversy. One of the most intriguing modern concepts in genetics is the epigenome, which serves as a link between the genome and the phenotype. The epigenome is so highly innovative that it has the potential to change our current understanding of heredity and evolution.

Even two people with identical DNA can have very different personalities. For cells, the same holds true. The same set of 20,000 genes are present in every cell in your body, including the skin cells in your toes and the retinal cells in your eyes. The cornerstone for each cell's identity, however, is provided by this common genetic blueprint.

Few other technical scientific topics have recently captivated the public's interest like epigenetics has. The "epigenetic revolution" and claims that epigenetics undermines our knowledge of evolution are frequently discussed in headlines. What exactly is epigenetics then? How does it operate? Why is it important? And is it the future of personalized healthcare?
