Peter Sudmant and CCB graduate student Ryan Chung’s Study examines Age’s Role in Determining the Function of Genes in our Bodies

Peter Sudmant, Assistant Professor of Integrative Biology, and CCB graduate student Ryan Chung along with co-first author Ryo Yamamoto publish a study on how age plays a more important role than genetics in terms of determining which genes in our bodies are turned on or off. The research creates a correlation between diseases of aging with genetic variation in humans. To study aging and gene expression, Sudmant and his colleagues created a statistical model to analyze 27 different human tissues.
