Description

Sex-specific epigenetic atlas across lifespan . This project aims to uncover sex-specific molecular marks that either predict or mediate healthy ageing across multiple tissues in humans. This project expects to generate new knowledge of cellular heterogeneity and epigenetic control of phenotype and healthy ageing. Further, we anticipate to uncover age-associated changes that differ between males and females, an area of chronic research under representation. These outcomes will lead to a comprehensive understanding of fundamental biological processes across lifespan, and our development of an open access atlas will underpin evidence-based personalised health strategies to keep Australians healthier for longer. .
