Keynote speaker Cheryl Lyn Walker, PhD, Director of the Center for Precision Environmental Health at Baylor College of Medicine, will deliver "What the epigenome can teach us about environmental causes of disease.”
Dr. Walker is internationally recognized for her work in environmental health and elucidation of molecular mechanisms of disease.
Her studies on the role of the epigenome in gene-environment interactions have yielded significant insights into mechanisms by which early life environmental exposures influence health and disease across the life-course.
Also at this event, award recipients of the Research!Louisville Showcase will be recognized.
