Short presentation
My PhD aims to give a better explanation of gene stability. To this day scientist still do not have enough information on the role of epigenetics modifications in SNP or CNVs rising in mammals. My PhD main project aims to give a better explanation in this topic. Genome stability can be affected by many factors, in my case I will be also investigating the role of obesity in genome stability.
