"Memories can be passed down to later generations through genetic switches that 
allow offspring to inherit the experience of their ancestors, according to new 
research that may explain how phobias can develop"

A link to the original article is included in the newspaper report. I don't 
have sufficient knowledge of epigenetic research to evaluate this paper, but on 
the surface it appears to be reasonably well crafted. If true, this may change 
the way in which we view and treat phobias.
