Marion J. Lamb

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marion J. Lamb was Senior Lecturer at Birkbeck, University of London, before her retirement. She studied the effect of environmental conditions such as heat, radiation and pollution on metabolic activity and genetic mutability in the fruit fly Drosophila before collaborating with Eva Jablonka with whom she has studied and written about the inheritance of epigenetic variations since the late 1980s.[1]
