Upcoming HeLTI ECR Seminar
When: Tuesday January 21 at 8:00 EST (13:00 GMT; 15:00 SAST; 18:30 IST; 21:00 CST)
Presenters: Dr. Miguel Ramalho-Santos and Sarah McClymont
Topic: Environmental-epigenome interactions during embryonic development
Brief Description:
Epidemiological data and rodent models indicate that environmental perturbations (diet, stress, toxins, etc.) during pregnancy can lead to long-term adverse health consequences. However, it remains unknown what are the underlying molecular and developmental mechanisms. Our lab is investigating these mechanisms in several models. We will discuss our recent findings, notably on a mouse model of anxiety during pregnancy.
