Presented By: Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center
Arsenic and Aging: Epigenetic damage over a lifetime and beyond
Environmental Research Webinar, presented by Chris Faulk (Univ of MN)
Registration required https://tinyurl.com/2p85d29u
University of Minnesota associate professor Chris Faulk, PhD, studies functional genomics in the department of animal science.
Dr. Faulk's Lab focus is on Epigenetics, Aging, Evolution, and Environmental Science. Dr. Faulk's lab statement, "My research is multi-scale with studies at the molecular genetic level in multiple organisms and human populations. I use computational methods to predict changes to the epigenome caused aging, dietary interventions, and environmental toxicants. I focus on both gene promoters and repetitive elements. My research models, the mouse and human, are primarily impacted by dietary shifts in nutrient availability and quantity simultaneously with toxicant exposure. My data analysis leverages massively parallel sequencing with comparative genomics to reveal regions evolutionarily selected for environmental plasticity."
