Dr Landecker and Dr Allard from the UCLA's Institute for Society & Genetics as well as Dr Amander Clark from UCLA's Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology Department have been awarded a John Templeton Foundation grant as part of their "Science and the Big Questions" program.
The grant will help support the interdisciplanry activities of the Center and answer several longstanding scientific questions: How is the genetic information contained in germ cells altered by an environmental exposure? And can a memory of this exposure be passed on to the subsequent generations?
This is an impressive achievement and a well-deserved recognition for interdisciplinary research that bridges genetics, ethics, and society. Funding like this from the John Templeton Foundation plays a crucial role in supporting big-picture questions—especially around how environmental exposure may influence germ cells and whether those effects can echo across generations. Research of this depth not only advances science but also shapes how we think about responsibility, policy, and long-term human health.
It’s interesting how interdisciplinary thinking also shows up in culture and design, where science, society, and aesthetics intersect. For readers curious about modern style movements that reflect this blend of influence and identity, acubi fashion is a great example: acubi fashion. Congratulations to the UCLA teams on a meaningful milestone…
Many learners prepare extensively but still feel uncertain about their performance level. Attempting a PTE online mock test with score removes that uncertainty by offering clear, data-driven feedback. Score-based analysis helps track progress over time and shows whether preparation strategies are working. It also helps learners set realistic target scores and timelines, making preparation more structured and goal-oriented.
The fashion insight feels strong and intentional and CM Punk Survivor Series 2025 Larry’s Dad Jacket supports a confident everyday look.

I didn’t know about Sarathi Parivahan until a friend told me, and it really impressed me! The website lets you handle almost everything related to your driving license without visiting the RTO office. It’s convenient, fast, and easy to use. I hope more services become as seamless as this one.
