DESCRIPTION:Dr. Alexey V. Terskikh Professor\, FHRI Distinguished Fellow\,
  Harry Perkins Institute & University of Western Australia https://perki
 ns.org.au/person/professor-alexey-terskikh\nAlexey V. Terskikh is a Future
  Health Research & Innovation Distinguished Fellow\, Head of the Chromatin
  and Ageing Laboratory at the Harry Perkins Institute and Professor at The
  University of Western Australia. He has a part-time position at the Scin
 tillon Research Institute in San Diego\, California. \n\nAlexey complete
 d his PhD studies in molecular immunology at the University of Lausanne in
  1997 and accomplished his postdoctoral studies in Irv Weissman’s labora
 tory at Stanford in 2002. Alexey established his research group at EPFL in
  2002. He moved to the Burnam Institute in San Diego (2006)\, where he in
 vestigated epigenetic mechanisms of neurogenesis using adult mouse dentate
  gyrus and human-induced pluripotent stem cell models and identified novel
  approaches to Zika virus treatment and the mechanism of viral propagation
 . \n\nAlexey’s group discovered that patterns of epigenetic marks in th
 e nucleus inform cellular identities and developed a novel technique: micr
 oscopic imaging of epigenetic landscapes (MIEL). Application of this techn
 ique to ageing\, termed image-based chromatin and epigenetic age (ImAge)\,
  captures intrinsic age-related progressions (trajectories) of the spatial
  organisation of chromatin and epigenetic marks in single nuclei. ImAge r
 epresents the first-in-class imaging-based biomarker of ageing with single
 -cell accuracy.\n
