Recent advances in cellular science are heralding an important
evolutionary turning point. For almost fifty years we have held the
illusion that our health and fate were preprogrammed in our genes, a
concept referred to as genetic determinacy. Though mass consciousness
is currently imbued with the belief that the character of one's life is
genetically predetermined, a radically new understanding is unfolding
at the leading edge of science.
Cellular biologists now
recognize that the environment, the external universe and our internal
physiology, and more importantly, our perception of the environment,
directly controls the activity of our genes. This video will broadly
review the molecular mechanisms by which environmental awareness
interfaces genetic regulation and guides organismal evolution.
