Biography
My research interests lie in investigating epigenetic regulation in normal development and disease e.g. osteoarthritis and hypertension.
We have a particular focus on the role of DNA methyltransferase enzymes in carrying out faithful transmission of the DNA methylation pattern and their contribution to onset and pathology of disease.
Additionally we are also investigating the influence of environmental factors such as nutrients and xenobiotics on DNA methylation maintenance and reprogramming.
