DNA Methylation and Development

This sketch video about epigenetics was created by Armando Hasudungan, in collaboration with Professor Susan Clark and Dr Kate Patterson at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research. It has been created for a broad, non-expert audience to highlight key messages about the role epigenetics plays in biological processes like development and diseases such as cancer.

Epigenetic patterns are established during embryonic development and maintained during cell division. Epigenetic patterns in each cell are exquisitely programmed but potentially can be altered by our environment. This video explains how the hypothesis of the developmental origins of health and disease proposes that not only are we what we eat but that we could also be what our parents and even our grandparents ate.

Thank you armando, I'm watching your videos since over 1 year now. They are simply amazing. Every time I don't know how to approach a topic I'm first having a look in your playlists whether there is a video for my topic, and most of the time I'm lucky.
Your videos give me a general overview and then i can start going deeper.
I really want to thank you for all that work you put in here and there by help me passing med school.

Thank you Armando. I am working in a complete different field (engineering), but have a lot of interest in learning new things. For me the mystery of DNA was always a question. I learned a lot from your videos. Keep doing it. Your visual presentations are awesome, and more importantly very educational, as it gradually engages the audience to the full concept at the end.

I thank you for all the videos you put in here and they help me overcoming my subject. Thanks. Hope your day is filled with sunny shine :)

Man !!! i want to buy all your posters !!

Your video is amazing n helpt me understand it alot better thanks

Great video Armando are you able to make one about Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy (MELAS) as very little seems to be known about it. I have new friend that has this condition and is very poorly on 30 meds a day.

thank u so much. It is such a wonderful video

I have a serious question? Can you compare between epigenetics in moving cancer and tumor cancer? I need the answer right now please. Thank you

can anyone explain or give clarity on the following ... does any change to typical Purine & Pyrimidine, folate, B6 or B12 pathways during pre or early post natal periods result in heritable genetics that could be passed from that baby should they procreate in later life?

[buddhikaj]

Can I know which camera you used to record this...and which software to editing...?

[Real_Alien]

why is there methylation in the beginning?

[faylouise]

think vitamin d for transcription, replication, modulation and expression!
