We are a research group interested in the field of DNA damage, repair and their biological implications, such as cell death and mutagenesis. DNA lesions are constantly introduced by environmental agents (ie. pollution and even sunlight), genotoxic chemical products or also byproducts of the cellular metabolism, contributing to cancer formation and aging in human beings. To keep genetic information intact is essential to species survival, and thus, DNA repair processes are highly relevant mechanisms, evolutionarily conserved in all living organisms, from bacteria to human beings. | We are a research group interested in the field of DNA damage, repair and their biological implications, such as cell death and mutagenesis.

The lesions in the genetic material may be introduced by environmental agents (as those from pollution and even sunlight), genotoxic chemical products or also byproducts of the cellular metabolism, and they may be the main causes for, in humans, cancer formation or aging. Thus, these DNA repair processes have been highly relevant during evolution and are found in all living organisms, from bacteria to humans.</font> | + | <br> |
