"Environmental Epigenetics: From Ecotoxicology to Evolution"

Expositor: Dr. Carlos Guerrero-Bosagna, Profesor Asociado, Equipo de investigación Epigenética Ambiental, Universidad de Uppsala.

Anfitrión: Dr. Alexander Vargas Milne.

Resumen: The field of environmental epigenetics investigates how environmental exposures from different sources affect the epigenetic makeup of organisms and populations. In the present seminar, I will present my past and current research on i) the epigenetic and transgenerational effects of early developmental exposures of rodents to environmental toxicants, ii) the identification of epigenetic marks in relation to exposures that cause stress during the early life of farm animals, and iii) the influence of epigenetic mechanisms in vertebrate genome dynamics within an evolutionary context.
