  • Summary

  • Unlock the secrets of genetic psychology with Professor Robert Plomin as we explore how our genes shape our behaviour, personality, and mental health. Dive into the heart of the debate: are we the products of our environment, or do our genes determine who we become?

    Join Kat and Professor Robert Plomin in this fascinating discussion about the substantial influence of genetics on psychology. From mental health to cognitive abilities, discover how genetic predispositions interact with environmental factors to shape individual differences. The conversation delves into genetic determinism, the role of polygenic scores in predicting health outcomes, and the ethical dimensions of genetic testing.

    We'll explore the balance between genetic makeup and personal choices, challenging the notion that environmental factors alone dictate our psychological traits. This engaging dialogue offers profound insights into how understanding our genetic foundation can lead to more informed and compassionate approaches to mental health and parenting.
