If #Chemotherapy quite frequently changes hair color, is this an indicator that hair color is in part defined by an #epigenetic mechanism? Will there be pills to change hair color in the future? I’ll need to ask one of the friends who have students explore strange stuff about this…

#Trauma may leave #epigenetic marks that are passed to following generations. Some preliminary evidence for this hypothesis comes from a (relatively small) study with Syrian families. Mechanisms unclear. But think about how this may affect historical trajectories of, e.g. countries traumatized by war. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-00937-z

#Cannabis Use Linked to #Epigenetic Changes

Using cannabis may cause changes in the human body's epigenome, a study of over 1,000 adults suggests. The epigenome functions like a set of switches, activating or deactivating genes to change how our bodies function.
