Epigenetics, ageing, and stem cells

University of Cambridge
Cambridge Stem Cell Institute
Group Leader. Dr Chiara Herzog (Herzog Group). Research Summary. Throughout life, our cells accumulate memories of their experiences, recorded on the “epigenome” - a layer of chemical tags on our DNA that switches genes on or off without changing the underlying genetic code itself. Read more

Epigenetics and Cancer: Determining how Mistakes in V(D)J Recombination Trigger Leukaemias and Lymphomas

University of Leeds
Faculty of Biological Sciences
  Research Group: School of Molecular and Cellular Biology
V(D)J recombination is essential to produce antibody and T-cell receptor genes but since the reaction involves breaking and rejoining DNA, it is highly dangerous and errors have long been thought to lead to leukaemias and lymphomas. Read more
