| Summary: | Professor Rachel Yahuda delivers a presentation on epigenetics and the effects of stress on the next generation. She opens the lecture with a series of pictures depicting people who have just experienced a catastrophic event in their life and showing the fear, shock, helplessness and grief felt immediately after a tragedy has occurred. Professor Yahuda talks about a programme set up in the early 1990’s to help treat holocaust survivors and how the children of survivors were contacting the programme and asking for help. This presented an opportunity for scientific enquiry to provide objective data to the question of what effect did the holocaust have on the children of holocaust survivors and did this, in any way translate to a global significance to survivors of other traumatic and stressful events. She discusses the initial survey the programme carried out, the findings and further studies undertaken, and presents these detailed findings. |
