Genomic Instability in Aging

Attendees will engage in comprehensive discussions covering topics such as DNA damage, repair mechanisms, telomere shortening, and the role of genomic instability in age-related diseases, including cancer. The session aims to shed light on the molecular and cellular pathways involved in genomic instability and how they intersect with the aging phenotype. Discussions will also extend to potential interventions and therapeutic strategies that address genomic instability to promote healthier aging. By participating in this session, attendees contribute to advancing our understanding of the molecular basis of aging, potentially unlocking avenues for targeted interventions that could mitigate genomic instability and its associated health consequences.
