How loyal are you to your genes?

​

Exhibited at the Science Museum Lates, this project aimed to reveal the effect of genetics on our food choices. It was based on the PTC (Phenylthiocarbamide) taste test, which is used to determine the type of gene present in our taste receptors. This gene produces the ability on people to detect bitterness in the food or dismiss it, creating an inclination towards liking or disliking certain types foods.
