# Core B - Retrotransposons Engineering and Genomics Core

> **NIH NIH P01** · BROWN UNIVERSITY · 2020 · $474,234

## Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY (CORE B)
Core B will provide cutting edge tools to measure retrotransposition in multicellular eukaryotes
in the context of aging paradigms. In addition to providing appropriate existing assays to all of
the participants, the core will also develop improved retrotransposition reporters and genomics
tools to enable the detection and mapping of retrotransposition events in the wide variety of
experimental systems under study.
