This project investigates how urban environmental stressors affect the epigenetics of wild birds, focusing on oxidative stress and its impact on DNA methylation and telomere dynamics. By comparing urban and rural bird populations, it aims to understand the long-term effects of early-life stress on development and survi…
The impact of urbanisation on wildlife is of increasing global concern.
It is well known that exposure to urban environmental stressors increases oxidative stress.
More recently, exposure to pollutants has been shown to directly modify the epigenome, via DNA methylation, in humans.
Oxidative stress may be a key mechanism mediating epigenetic modifications in response to pollutant exposure and thereby influencing development, disease resistance and ageing.
