Breaking down causes, consequences, and mediating effects of #telomere length variation on human health Genome Biology 🧬🧬 Thanks to @ Samuel Moix Zoltán Kutalik Chiara Auwerx et al. genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Nice work by our QB scholar Samuel Moix

What are the causes and consequences of changes in #telomere length? 🧬 Find out more in our comprehensive study led by Samuel Moix now out in Genome Biology! 👇🏻 One of my favorite findings: an intriguing link between female reproductive events and telomere length! 💁🏻♀️

What is the impact of lifestyle factors on telomere length? And what in turn is the impact of telomere length on diseases? Have a look at this very comprehensive #MendelianRandomization study by Samuel Moix which sheds light on these questions 🧬📊

This week, I successfully defended my #PhD in front of my committee! 🎉👩🏻🎓 Thanks to all for the wonderful day and exciting discussions! Looking back, the last 4 years have been an amazing journey that I was fortunate to share with so many incredible people Université de Lausanne and beyond! 💫
