Professor Emma Teeling MRIA talks about her research into what bat genetics can teach us about human disease and aging. Living mammals (~5,400 species) originated approximately 217-238 Million Years Ago, inhabit every biome on Earth, and are arguably one of the most phenotypically diverse group of vertebrates. This Academy Discourse will showcase how studying our most unique mammals, using state-of-the-art genomic technologies coupled with traditional field studies, can uncover how to live healthier longer and other secrets.
Part of the 2019/20 Discourse Series sponsored by Mason, Hayes and Curran
