Linking telomere dynamics to evolution, life history and environmental change: perspectives, predictions and problems
22 Jan 2024
Abstract excerpt
This perspectives paper considers the value of studying telomere biology outside of a biomedical context. I provide illustrative examples of the kinds of questions that evolutionary ecologists have addressed in studies of telomere dynamics in non-model species, primarily metazoan animals, and what this can contribute to our understanding of their evolution, life histories and health. I also discuss why the...
