- Understand the impact of epigenetics on aging as well as instances of epigenetic age acceleration and deceleration
- Appreciate the epigenetic mechanisms of sex-specific aging
- Ascertain how lifestyles and other factors determine healthy and unhealthy aging
This webinar will be an exciting chance to hear from specialists in the field of biology, genetics, epigenetics, biomathematics, and psychiatry. This webinar is CPD accredited.
