What makes some individuals age and remain healthier and live longer compared to those who develop a disease earlier on? In this trainee research webinar, two trainees will showcase how they used CanPath data to explore how factors like age, ancestry, lifestyle factors, and the environment can affect your gene and biomarker expression and, in turn, how you may or may not develop certain diseases across the lifespan.
Dr. Michelle Harwood asks how allele-specific expression may contribute to healthy aging, disease progression, and treatment outcomes, and Umaimah Zanif explores how two biomarkers related to colorectal cancer prognosis are associated with demographic, health history and lifestyle factors assessed before their diagnosis.
Tune in to learn more about how you can leverage CanPath data for your graduate research!
