The integration of omic techniques for the identification of polygenic profiles of susceptibility to obesity (Duration: 2016-2017)

by diogo.santos | Fev 16, 2016 | Projetos

Duration: 2016-2017 Abstract: Obesity is a major health problem worldwide, associated with environment factors but having also a strong genetic component. To date >50 frequent SNPs were found to be associated with obesity-related traits by genome-wide...

Osteometrics in burned human skeletal remains: estimating heat-induced dimensional changes in bones by neutron spectroscopy (2nd experiment) (Duration: 2016)

by diogo.santos | Jan 17, 2016 | Projetos

Duration: 2016 Abstract: This study aims at developing a reliable method for probing diagenetic alterations in human bones upon burning events, by INS spectroscopy. The results will be coupled to Raman and FTIR data (obtained concomitantly), with a view to better...
