Epigenomic profiling of preterm infants reveals DNA methylation differences at sites associated with neural function
DNA methylation (DNAm) plays a determining role in neural cell fate and provides a molecular link between early-life stress and neuropsychiatric disease. Preterm birth is a profound environmental stressor that is closely associated with alterations in connectivity of neural systems and long-term neu...
