Hello everyone!
Thank you so much for having me at the Women’s Wellness Conference in Gravenhurst! I had the best time and you were a fantastic audience! I wish I could have had more time, and I am sorry that I ended up rushing at the end, and not getting to all of the material.
For that reason, I have asked Sue to add the PPT presentation to her website, along with some links to documentaries, videos, and articles that I mentioned.
I hope you learned a little bit about genetics and maybe I will see you in the future sometime at another workshop about epigenetics and medicine! J
All the best, and thanks for the warm welcome!
Jane
