Epigenetics refers to processes that induce heritable changes in gene expression without altering the gene sequence. Find out about our work with DNA methylation, histone modification and non-coding RNAs.
Next generation sequencing technology of the human genome enables us to challenge what constitutes normal genome variation across populations and what DNA variation predisposes to disease.
Research in Nutrition and Metabolism seeks to understand how our diet, specific dietary components, lifestyle or health can affect growth, development, metabolism, and function.
Fetal responses to maternal environmental cues can alter developmental pathways in ways that have long-lasting effects on our health and the way our bodies interact with the future environment.
