Tematika
Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in phenotype that do not involve alterations in the genome. Environmental effects or normal developmental programs can result in epigenetic changes. During the course, an international team (University of Birmingham, UK, University of Pecs, Hungary) will explain both in a lecture format and in a practical session the fundamentals of epigenetics.
In the first part of the course, the concept of genomics, genome structure, and techniques of genome data harvesting is established, then the principles and levels of gene regulation, the concept of epigenetic gene regulation, as a paradigm are highlighted, and integrated into the network-based approach of genetic regulation. In further lectures, the general principles of animal development, and developmental genetic and genomics-based studies will be presented in the evolutionary developmental biology (EVO-DEVO) context, and medical aspects considered.
