Sex-biased transcriptome in in vitro produced bovine early embryos - Cell & Bioscience
Background Morphologic sex differences between males and females typically emerge after the primordial germ cell migration and gonad formation, although sex is determined at fertilization based on chr...

DNA Methylation Dynamics Reflect Sex and Status Differences in Mortality Rates in a Polygynous Bat
Males of polygynous mammals often do not live as long as females and, in some cases, exhibit evidence of earlier senescence. Patterns of DNA methylation (DNAm) have recently been used to predict chro...

Another packed house this morning at our 10th seminar in our Live Better Longer Community Seminar series. Today research on aging is the most interrogated field in all of the life sciences. Dr Verdin is addressing what’s next for the field, and how soon will we get there.
