0:00.0	So today I want to define a word epigenetics in very simple terms.
0:26.4	Now you're going to hear a lot more about this.
0:28.5	It's a very exciting field, but let me just explain where it is.
0:33.0	So you have the genes, and genes are the smallest sections of the DNA.
0:39.3	The DNA is the blueprint, instructions for building a body.
0:46.8	And this DNA gets copied as something called RNA, it's a copy of the DNA, and the DNA

1:49.4	It's epigenetics.
1:51.0	Epigenetics means above genetics.
