this man is such a delight; his politeness and measured manner of speech is truly something to learn from. i bet that working at his lab is remarkably enjoyable. looking forward to watching part 2! thanks for the video; keep up the good work iBiology team, you are certainly one of the best (i honestly cannot even think of others) advanced-level education sources in molecular biology!

Years ago I was a laboratory technologist and I started seeing these articles regarding methylation. After your lecture, even though I didn’t get a some of the more detailed technical; information, I now understand a little better the significance of your interesting work. So, thank you.

Hello Dr. Ellis - is anybody looking at the placenta in relation to epigenetics? If I understand it correctly, it is genetically identical to the embryo but develops in a completely different way, which would suggest that a different set of epigentic switches is present in the descendents of the fertilised egg that goes on to form the placenta and those that go on to form the embryo. I thought there might be some interesting finds to be made through a comparison of the two. On a side note, who do we inherit the epigenetic switches from that kickstart the developments of the embryo and the placenta respectively - the mother or father or a bit of both?

it would seem that quantity of genes does not correlate to "intellect" or whatever makes people special? perhaps quantity of genes matters more in ability to survive varied or difficult environments, which are obviously not that good at, in terms of genetic ability, not ability to alter the environment

Why is it so often said that it is unintuitive that humans should have a similar number of genes as fish and frogs and whatever? They have skin and spines and eyes and hearts and lungs and bones and so on and so on. Why should we expect to be anything more than a different sculpture made from the same clay?

I just think because of the difference in intelligence, bodily adaptions, physical appearance, etc. it may seem surprising to some people that we have a similar amount of genes as these other creatures.

+Patrick Dennis Yes, this is a real problem for ID. Now that we know there is such incredibly advanced binary digital computers inside our cells there is no chance of an intelligent designer. We know this from the way microsoft just let a bunch of Windows XP computers sit around and run until they randomly became Window 10 computers. I mean like obviously from what you get out of microsoft no intelligence is required.

But you know it is just science, who needs to listen to that garbage.

He's assuming there is a good and bad mother, and he and some elite are the judge of it. The reality of life makes no such call. The bad mother could be the one that rears kittens that survive. So many of these studies have a "support the status quo agenda" without them even realising it. I don't mean the status quo of science but of society. Real change might very well come from the worst treated survivor. I admit I only browsed through the video and the subject is new to me so maybe I'll change my mind on further study.

hello, i think you realy missed the point. this experiment was not conducted to show that some mothers are better than others but to show that very different behaviors of mothers towards genetically identical babies leads to very distinct epigenetic markers and phenotypes. there is a reason why the terms good and bad were in quotes ;)

@@Thomaaasooo To research a subject, devision of good and bad is enough as we are answering questions. However, these effects are too brittle and broken easily by many other factors. So every single ingredient is only good to have rather than deterministic.
