Fishes, worms, and human aging
7 January 2022 @ 16:00 - 17:00
Ayça Arslan Ergül
MSN Graduate Program and UNAM
In this talk I will not focus on one research, but instead I will try to give glimpses of all the topics that we work on or ideas that we nourish. In this way you may also join or contribute to one of the projects, if you get interested. Arslan-Ergul lab has been founded in January 2021 in UNAM, so we are celebrating our first year. Our research interest can be summarized in one word as aging, in several words as brain aging, neurodegeneration, adaptation, genetics, and behavior.
