Epigenetics and the influence of our genes | Courtney Griffins | TEDxOU

TEDx Talks

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED conferences. Because we want to understand what genes are required for blood vessel development, Courtney Griffin studies certain enzymes that help turn genes on and off. These enzymes are specifically involved in relaxing DNA that is normally tightly coiled up in our cells.

The End of the Long Bond Era

Bloomberg Originals

From the US to Japan, governments are having to pay investors more to get them to lend money by buying bonds. Now countries everywhere are pulling back on issuing longer-term debt. Washington is having to pay the highest interest rate in almost 18 years for 30-year bonds, while Japan and the UK face the highest rates in decades. Germany and Australia are also having to put up more to raise money. Indeed, countries from Austria to the UK are pulling back on issuing 50-, 70- and 100-year bonds just a few years after investors couldn’t get enough of them. -------- Like this video?
