Keynote Speaker Michael Kobor @koborlab @UBC delivered his talk:

"Epigenetics & the Human Life Course"

He discussed aging across the life course, the epigenetic landscape, the determinants of current health, environment & the idea of focusing on the healthspan vs the lifespan

Our publication showing that pregnancy is associated with faster epigenetic aging is out now in @PNASNews!

A thread about the paper below 👇

[MATRIX-N Cluster UBC @MatrixN_UBC]

Research suggests that fine particulate matter is a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, but the mechanisms are unknown.
Check out a new publication by @koborlab and colleagues focused on how DNA methylation can mediate this association.
