Abstract: Telomeres are used as biomarkers of vertebrate health because of the link between their length, lifespan, and survival. Exposure to environmental stressors appears to alter telomere dynamics, but little is known about telomere length and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1089/scd.2022.0115
Abstract: Haploinsufficiency of genes that participate in the telomere elongation and maintenance processes, such as Terc and Tert, often lead to premature aging related diseases such as dyskeratosis congenita and aplastic anemia. Previously we reported that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2022.0176
Abstract: Our understanding of state-dependent behaviour is reliant on identifying physiological indicators of condition. Telomeres are of growing interest for understanding behaviour as they capture differences in biological state and residual lifespan. To understand the significance… read more here.
