Abstract: Aging is characterized by extensive variability in the onset of morbidity and mortality, even in genetically identical populations with carefully controlled environments. This points to the important role stochasticity plays in shaping the divergent aging… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/20734735.0227-2024
Abstract: Epigenetic mechanisms control how and when our genes are switched on or off. They are altered by chronic environmental exposures, like cigarette smoke or air pollution, contributing to disease development. Excitingly, they can also be… read more here.
