Is your father’s childhood trauma affecting your genes? New research uncovers how childhood stress affects sperm cells
Scientists have unveiled a link between childhood stress and epigenetic changes in sperm cells that could affect future generations. Published in Molecular Psychiatry, the study indicates that early life trauma might leave genetic markers that persist into adulthood, raising the possibility of intergenerational effects on health. Further research is required to confirm these results.
