When
it comes to human behavior, some traits are neither nature nor nurture,
but something altogether different. That “something” is epigenetics,
the science that helps to explain how the environment, including some
social interactions, alter DNA. In this talk, Dr. Karissa Sanbonmatsu
gives an overview of the new science of epigenetics, which may help to
understand autism, addiction, depression, Alzheimer’s and even love. She
will discuss her latest research, revealing how long RNA molecules
(DNA’s molecular cousins) may be the key to understanding many
epigenetic phenomena.
Karissa Sanbonmatsu is a principal
investigator at Los Alamos National Laboratory, studying the
epigenetics, RNA and molecular machines. With over a half-million views,
her 2014 TEDx talk describes how she found her way to epigenetics
research.
