OK, it looks dry, but this is jaw-dropping in my opinion. We have ‘known’ for generations that only by inheritance can DNA itself be actually changed. Even the epigenetics revolution now underway is only talking about what genes are switched on by whatever food, activity, or event, - but this is talking about ‘experience’ (as it affects DNA or RNA sequences) being transferred directly to the haploid germ cells - eggs and sperm. This goes behind Mendel to break the Weissman barrier. This hews closer to Lamarck (inheritance of acquired characteristics, been out of favor for a century), and may mean that human evolution can and does proceed much faster than we thought. Good news if you think the world is going to hell in a handbasket. We’ll stay tuned to this research - can your bodywork (meditation, yoga, exercise) make it better for your clients’ children? The suggestion here is yes’. -- Tom
