107 - Does Epigenetics Explain Homosexuality?

from Beta Sandwich Science Podcast Hosted by Scott Barnett

On this week's episode of the Beta Sandwich Science Podcast we discuss: (1) How some scientists believe histone modification may be the key to understanding homosexuality; (2) If "stress" can be passed from father to offspring via miRNA; (3) a War on Science update; and (4) Beta Sandwich Science History Game It's not a great photo (the flash was off) but here's Ira Glass (of NPR's This American Life) looking a wee bit horrified as I explain how an organ bath works. Sorry Ira :) Here's a much nicer one of us. Thanks for coming to Reno Ira, you have a great talk!
