Research project

Molecular aging trajectories in early life

Exploring the hallmarks of aging during early life to define baseline conditions is an essential step towards a better understanding of the mechanisms of aging. In my project I explore telomere dynamics in early life. I want to see if there are healthy or unhealthy trajectories and which factors may influence the process. Furthermore, I am investigating rDNA as additional hallmark if aging and important omics regulator.
