Maternal matters

Join Dr Milan Vrtílek (Czech Academy of Sciences) and Dr Pierre Chuard (Bishop's University) as they venture into the world of maternal effects – a form of inheritance that goes beyond genes. We also discuss the importance of preregistering studies for robust, reproducible science and explore the often-overlooked value in finding negative results. In this episode we explore the recent Heredity article: “The role of maternal effects on offspring performance in familiar and novel environments” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41437-021-00431-y Hosted on Acast.
