Funded Activity Summary

Functional role of a novel DNA modification in the adult brain. This project aims to understand how neuronal DNA is modified upon learning and how this impacts memory formation. The project will investigate the combination of different genome-wide sequencing approaches and molecular and cell biological assays to provide new insight into the functional role of a novel DNA modification, N6-methyl-2'-deoxyadenosine in the adult brain. This projects expects to have a major impact on many fields, including neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and genetics, by helping to shape a new way of thinking about gene-environment interactions
