Early interactions between mother and child can impact future stress responses

A recent study, published in the American Journal of Human Biology, has revealed that epigenetic changes can be triggered during […]

An overview of different multi-omics approaches

Multi-omics involves bringing the multiple “omics” together, to get a clearer and more comprehensive picture of biological processes, disease pathology, […]

An overview of -omics technologies in multi-omics

A multi-omics approach involves the combining of different “omics”: genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics. The simultaneous study of each “omic” […]

A guide to multi-omics

Multi-omics is the combining of different “omics” – the genome, epigenome, transcriptome and proteome. Studying each layer in isolation can […]
