I am a molecular and behavioural neuroscientist interested in the contribution of epigenetic mechanisms to brain and behaviour. In particular, we are investigating an intriguing family of genes, the imprinted genes, which are subject to epigenetic control acquired during development resulting in expression from one parental copy (allele) only. The research is focused on addressing what these imprinted genes are doing in the brain and how they may contribute to neurodevelopmental disorders.

Mae gan fy ngrŵp ddiddordeb yng nghyfraniad mecanweithiau epigenetig i'r ymennydd ac ymddygiad.

Mae ymchwil diweddar ar y cyd â'r Athro Rosalind John (Prifysgol Caerdydd) yn ymchwilio i weld a all newidiadau yn mynegiant brychol genynnau argraffedig ddylanwadu ar ymddygiad mamau a chanlyniadau diweddarach o'r epil.

Mae gennyf ddiddordeb hefyd mewn datblygu a defnyddio modelau preclinical ar gyfer anhwylderau niwroddatblygiadol a niwroseiciatrig, ac ar hyn o bryd rwy'n arwain clwstwr MURIDAE o fewn Rhwydwaith Genetig Llygoden Genedlaethol UKRI: MRC.

Mae ein gwaith yn gofyn am ddull amlddisgyblaethol er mwyn archwilio agweddau ar ymddygiad, niwrofioleg a geneteg foleciwlaidd. Rydym yn archwilio ffenoteipiau ymddygiadol yn bennaf mewn modelau cnofilod ac yn defnyddio technegau moleciwlaidd ar gyfer mynd i'r afael â mynegiant genynnau a rheoleiddio epigenetig y genom (addasiad histone a methylation DNA).
