Research Interests
Idan's research focuses on three broad, overlapping questions: (1) How does early life stress affect the course of aging across the life span? (2) How do genetic differences between people contribute to variability in the course of aging and age-related diseases? (3) What are the underlying mechanisms leading to age-related illnesses and early mortality in stress-related disorders?
