In this episode, I discuss some simple genetics background that we will need for the next episode on epigenetics. I talk about the central dogma of biology, DNA, RNA, proteins, and epigenetics. Next episode I will be going over this paper: Cavalli, G., Heard, E. Advances in epigenetics link genetics to the environment and disease. Nature 571, 489–499 (2019) doi:10.1038/s41586-019-1411-0.

As always, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, or you have a paper you'd like me to review, send the full citation to podsauce@gmail.com! Thanks for listening.
