Centre for Environmental Radioactivity (CERAD), Research Area 3 - Biological Responses: Transgenerational hereditary, reproductive and epigenetic effects.

The main aim of this focus area is to generate new knowledge from detailed endpoint analyses after gamma radiation exposures, plus-minus secondary stressors, for a few selected model species. A special focus has been on effects related to reproduction and genotoxic effects, and underpinning mechanistic explanatory mechanisms involving transcriptomics and epigenetic regulation.
