GerMonsterNotta 355 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Any scientists or science lovers here loving Gaga's references here in the promo??Ā I dont know how well the epi-genome has been referenced before in the pop culture sphere/ music world?! ... (unless anyone knows otherwise...) I kind of love the slight similarity, inĀ that epigenetic scientists were once not the cool kids at the party when this was very new stuff, ie not everyoneĀ believed how important these changes were to diseaseĀ and are stillĀ purely focussed on direct changes in the DNA code alone........Ā but now the epigeneticĀ fieldĀ is exploding and really is the "s#xy science" in the community... Come through Methylation QueenĀ Do you think she'll make reference directly in a song on Chromatica?! Which one, and how? Or is this just anĀ interesting discussion point for her promo.Ā ..or is this line of excitement justĀ me hereĀ Ā Spoiler Ā Stream rain on me Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucee 1,690 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I do. I'm here for that.Ā I tried already to explain how it shows Gaga is a clever girl, she goes deep, she's on point. She know what she does. This topic is fresh in the science world... So Like. The girl is literally studying depression and stuff and how it can be transmitted... Via the epigenome,Ā methylation of DNA and stuff.... OMG I traumatised of making threads. So thanks.Ā I got a feeling this thread will flop idk why. But it make me smile a lot.Ā Do you think that the Sun energy mixed with highly positive thoughts and chants can un-methylise the DNA ? I am doing that when I'm like alone in nature. Chanting for washing my epigenome....Ā hello hello baby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Sides Now 20 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hello girlies Iām a lurker hereĀ Ā Iām doing a PhD in genetics and when Gaga mentioned epigenetics in her interview I actually cringed a littleĀ Ā I was relieved when she said something along the lines of āIām not trying to make this pseudoscienceā but yeah.Ā Ā What sheās suggesting is a BIG stretch which Iāve actually noticed in the mainstream. It comes from studies that show that āstressā can cause changes to your epigenome which can be heritable. The jump from that to āthe death of my aunt caused me to inherit trauma from my dadā is a bit of a leap for meĀ I donāt mean to sound overly critical to Ga but I think most scientists would roll their eyes at thatĀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilyLark 9,694 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 TBH found it a bit cringey. Also thought for a hot second that some dumb person would confuse epigenetics with Nazi eugenics and think the former was the latter. It absolutely convinced me she was sort of into Marianne Williamson (lol), because she talks about epigenetics. To be fair, Marianne has a lot of people who love her and you don't have to like everything she does but a while back she used to be a semi anti-vaxxer (she denies she was ever one, but some of her old comments...anyway, currently she is not one thank god because I have some friends who are into her).

Epigenetics is a lot more subtle than that. The Dutch Famine is main example we're all taught in genetics I think, but it shows that the trauma isn't transmitted to you but it causes you to inherit a health issue (mental or physical). It's highly likely that the epigenome she inherited from her dad was tainted (for a lack of a better word) but she didn't inherit trauma. She's also experienced trauma herself so I think it's hard to draw a line between her dad's influence on her epigenome and how her life experiences have modified her epigenome. I know that there's ongoing research into how epigenetic modifications are involved in how humans adapt to a changing environment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
