Epigenetics and Transgenerational Inheritance with Dr Michael Skinner

September 13, 2011

Dr. Michael Skinner lays down how environment exposures can impact epigenetics and generations to come. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina. Epigenetics and Transgenerational Inheritance I’ve been a researcher in the area of reproductive […]

Epigenetics in Chronic Disease with Dr Ian Wood

September 13, 2011

Dr. Ian Wood discusses the potential role of epigenetics in chronic disease development. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina. Epigenetics in Chronic Disease So my research group, we’re interested in the mechanisms that are […]

Prenatal Environmental Exposures, Epigenetics, and Health with Dr Frederica Perera

September 9, 2011

Dr. Frederica Perera touches on how the environment around us can make a big impact very early in life and stick with us for a long time. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina. Environmental Exposures […]

Human Transgenerational Responses with Dr Marcus Pembrey

September 9, 2011

Dr. Marcus Pembrey provides a nice background on his experiences with imprinting and how it might provide a means for transgenerational adaptation. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina. Interview Transcript I’m a chemical geneticist, […]

Imprinted Genes and Fetal Growth with Dr Gudrun Moore

September 8, 2011

Dr. Gudrun Moore discusses her studies of key genes involved with fetal growth and their regulation. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina. Imprinted Genes and Fetal Growth As I am fundamentally interested in looking […]

Early-Life Stress, Epigenetics, and Disease with Dr Patrick McGowan

September 8, 2011

Dr. Patrick McGowan discusses how stresses early in life can potentially impact epigenetic mechanisms and disease susceptibility. This short take was shot during a break at Keystone Symposia’s meeting on Environmental Epigenomics and Disease Susceptibility held in March 2011 in Asheville, North Carolina. Environmental Influences on Developmental Programming Well epigenetics is really central to the […]

NCBI NIH Tools for Surfing the Epigenome

August 31, 2011

Massive epigenome mapping projects have led to a deluge of data that eager epigeneticists can’t wait dive into, but it’s not quite that simple. It’s no easy feat to learn about the best places to download, view or manipulate epigenomic data, much less understand the tidal wave of information once you’ve found it. It’s all […]

A New Spin on RNA Purification

August 18, 2011

RNA isolation. It doesn’t get that much hype, but it should considering it’s the first, and perhaps most critical, step in virtually every RNA analysis workflow out there. Today’s favorite techniques are increasingly accurate and precise and some applications, like next-gen sequencing, will have you swimming in data analysis for weeks. That’s not such a […]

Top Five Reasons To Automate Your Epigenetic Workflow

August 3, 2011

The word “automation” conjures up images of the future complete with robot butlers and flying cars, but the reality is that automation is here now, and it can change your everyday life in a big way. In the lab, automated instruments have already impacted how we use common techniques like PCR and sequencing. Today new […]

ENCODE and Roadmap Epigenomics Antibody Validation Database

July 19, 2011

Many epigenetics techniques and projects rely on high-quality antibodies, but not all commercial antibodies perform well enough to get the job done. On top of that, there’s no uniform standard, or easy steps to fully validate a good antibody. With help of the Park lab at Harvard Medical School, there is now a place that […]
