Evolution is the basis of biological diversity, driven by mechanisms that allow organisms to adapt and survive. One such mechanism is polyploidy, where organisms carry extra copies of their genomes.

UConn Center on Aging researchers have published a new editorial in the journal Aging titled "Polyploidy-induced senescence: Linking development, differentiation, repair, and (possibly) cancer?" In ...

“Our work highlights the need to study polyploidy and senescence in concert to understand their roles in aging, cancer, and therapeutic resistance.” “Our work highlights the need to study polyploidy ...
