NINR will host the workshop “Genomic Response to the Social Environment: Implications for Health Outcomes” on June 24, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. EDT. The event is open to the public, and registration is not required.
While it is long recognized that the social environment can influence the risk, manifestation, and trajectory of disease and associated symptoms, the underlying biological mechanisms remain understudied. This trans-disciplinary event will address the relationship among genomics (epigenomics, gene expression, microbiome, telomeres); social environmental factors; and health outcomes across populations, conditions, and the lifespan.
The full agenda is available on the workshop’s event page. The workshop will be streamed live on the NIH videocast page at: https://videocast.nih.gov/watch=37955.
