Ae21-Epigenetics in Aging and Cancer
Oncology / IBS-Ae21 / Emerging

We study the role of epigenetic heterogeneity in cancer and stem cell biology.
Research lines
- Dissection of the molecular bases of epigenetic memory.
- Analysis of epigenetic pathways associated with aging.
- Design of therapeutic interventions with drugs that slow down or reverse aging.
- Dissection of the epigenetic pathways that regulate metastatic dissemination.
- Design of therapeutic interventions with epigenetic drugs in cancer.
Keywords
