All are open to the public, but you may need to register to attend. Contact us to receive email notices of significant updates, or to request additions to this page.

You Are What Your Grandmother Ate! with Dr. Jerry Bergman
Carol Stream, IL

Do you remember hearing that our DNA is much simpler than we thought, and full of non-useful, vestigial "junk?" Not any more! DNA is far more functional and complex than was believed a few years ago. Environment and our own choices can turn genes on and off, and the effects can remain for generations! It's the opposite of what evolution predicts!
