Are we defined by our genes?  Or can we transcend them?  Is our fate determined by the particular variant of the DNA molecule we inherit or can we break free of genetic code?  Is there such a thing as ‘genetic determinism’ or are we in control of our lives?

This two part series will seek answers to all these questions and more on both a personal and public level.
