Scientific Controversies

Mechanisms of MemoryOded Rechavi explores the fascinating role of RNA in memory transmission and its implications for genetic inheritance. His research challenges traditional views by demonstrating how experiences can be encoded in RNA and passed across generations, influencing behavior.

Mechanisms of Memory

Epigenetic InheritanceOded Rechavi delves into the mechanisms of RNA interference and its role in gene silencing and inheritance. He challenges traditional genetic views by exploring how acquired traits and memories might be passed across generations through small RNAs.
