Unravelling the genetic characteristics and demographic history of human populations in diverse environments across North Asia and South America by Ghosh, Amit Gourav

“…The vast regions of North Asia and South America harbour diverse populations, often living in extreme environments. Genetic characteristics and the demographic history of the populations of the two regions remain understudied primarily because of the underrepresentation of the populations in large-scale whole-genome studies and public databases. …”

Telomere length profiling and its implications: exploring metabolic traits, genetic associations and variant effects in the Singapore population by Nguyen, Thi Thu Trang

“…To address the underrepresentation of telomere biology research in the Asian population, particularly in Singapore, this project seeks to investigate the telomere length (TL) profile, its associations, and the functional implications of specific telomere-related variants observed in both cancer cases identified from different clinical cohorts and the Singaporean general population. …”

Effect of aneuploidy on cellular adaptation to hyper-osmotic and ionic stress by Natali, Federica

“…At the same time, aneuploidy has been shown to promote further chromosome and genetic instability that could lead to the generation of a genomically heterogeneous aneuploid populations. I therefore hypothesize that aneuploidy might increase cellular evolvability via two mechanisms: first aneuploidy increases genetic and karyotypic instability and therefore generates population of cells carrying different phenotypes. …”
