Project Title:
Tracking the entirety of developmental exposures and their impact on the mammalian epigenome
Project Summary:
Through utilising a series of novel reporter lines, I am investigating the impact of selected drug exposures during pregnancy and tracking the longitudinal nature of responses. I am particularly interested in exploring the effects of environmental and pharmacological toxic insults on the developing epigenome and imprinted loci.
