LINES OF RESEARCH
Main research question: ¿How does the genotype status affect individual body time?
Main research areas: genetics and transcriptomics of aging and age related diseases.
- Transcriptomics of aging: we are interested in identifying transcriptomic changes during aging which can account for the hallmarks and mechanisms of this complex process. We use an interdisciplinary approach based on bioinformatics tools, molecular biology, classical genetics and imaging in order to validate high through-put data.
- Characterization of the aging non-coding transcriptome and its relevance in regulation of body time: the largest part of the genome is not transcribed into proteins. We study the potential regulatory role of non-coding transcripts expressed during aging and their relationship to differentially expressed genes in old individuals. We want to understand to what extent the nons-coding genome can influence the aging process. We use an interdisciplinary approach based on computational tools, bioinformatics tools,
molecular biology, classical
