Epigenetic Mechanisms of Aging and Longevity (Shelley Berger)

Listen Later

In this Episode we sat down with Shelley Berger, Keynote Speaker at the "EMBO | EMBL Symposium: Metabolism Meets Epigenetics" to talk about her work on Epigenetic Mechanisms of Aging and Longevity. On how cytoplasmic chromatin fragments are involved in these processes, how alcohol has an effect on Histone PTMs in the brain and last but not least how Ants became her favorite Model Organism.
