A great team to work with @linehjort DIGNITY QKRMT-KRCT Rigshospitalet Dr Peter Fransquet Learning more about how we can break the cycle of trauma.

A great infographic video featuring results from a recent study I was privileged to be involved in. Here we showed evidence of transgenerational epigenetic changes in offspring associated with maternal PTSD. Please go watch!

#BND_team proud of team member Heather J Craig 🙂 for presenting her amazing PhD research on optimism at the ASPREE student seminar

A great paper comparing imputation methods for epigenome wide datasets shorturl.at/lpuwE. Looks like methyLImp is the way to go (shorturl.at/wEHUV)
