Join Dr. Kent Thornburg and OJMCHE’s Director of Education, Beth Lilach, for a presentation and discussion on Zoom about epigenetics: the study of how cells control gene activity without changing the DNA sequence. Dr. Thornburg will explain the scientific understanding of how trauma is transmitted between generations, then will join Lilach in conversation about the ways epigenetics are felt across diverse communities, especially amongst Holocaust and other genocide survivors.
