This paper develops a Drosophila model of repetitive traumatic brain injury to study sex-specific behavioral, proteomic, and neurodegenerative outcomes.

The paper examines DNA methylation changes linked to early life adversity in the FFCWS cohort, finding specific, functional genomic regions associated with mental health disorders.

This study shows social isolation upregulates takeout in female Drosophila, increasing sucrose feeding, while having opposite effects in males.

The paper tests chromatin condensation inhibitors in a retinal degeneration mouse model, showing they preserve retinas through different mechanisms.

This study shows that genomic instability occurs before viral integration in HPV-transformed cells and that episomal virus leads to less tumorigenicity than integrated virus.

This study identifies mitochondrial genome variants associated with ALS and reports haplogroup distribution patterns in ALS patients.

This study shows that epigenetic-BMI measured from children's saliva is a valid biomarker of BMI and reflects social inequalities in childhood and adolescence.

The paper identifies differentially methylated regions and methylation QTLs associated with teen depression and early puberty using longitudinal DNA methylation data from the Fragile Families Child Wellbeing Study.
