Summary



Studying Epigenetics over the course of almost a month has strengthen my beliefs about mood affecting your health, During cheerleading I always tell the girls who feel something like their nose is going to swell up, to not think about it, and usually it works, it is like mind over matter. Although epigenetics is not mind over matter I do believe the environment affects our genes vastly and I am a strong believer that our epigenomes are inherited, especially with Bygrens studies supporting that idea. Overall, I am glad I chose Epigenetics as a project subject because I am sure it will lead scientist to discoveries we have long been coveting.
