Perinatal and Developmental Epigenetics, Volume 32, a new volume in the Translational Epigenetics
series, provides a thorough overview of epigenetics in the early
developmental and perinatal stages, illuminating pathways for drug
discovery and clinical advances. Here, over 25 international researchers
examine recent steps forward in our understanding of epigenetic
programming during perinatal and early development. The book opens with
an in-depth introduction to known and newly discovered epigenetic marks
and how they regulate various cellular processes. Later sections examine
various prenatal and perinatal environmental experiences and their
ability to derail the normal developmental trajectory via epigenetic
reprogramming.

Insights and suggestions for future
research illuminate approaches for identifying individual disease
susceptibility. Concluding chapters highlight preventative and targeted
therapeutic pathways to improve quality of life into adulthood.

• Examines disease onset stemming from epigenetic changes during the perinatal periods
• Features contributions from international experts in the field, including basic biology, disease research and drug discovery
• Offers intervention strategies to mitigate adverse developmental programming to improve health outcomes
