Gene regulation during development and evolution
In our group we are combining epigenomics, chromosome capture assays, transgenic enhancer experiments and mutagenic studies to determine how cis-regulatory elements and chromatin structure contribute to development and evolution, and how alteration in this non-coding part of the genome affects human health.
Keywords
Evolution of gene expression / three-dimensional chromatin structure / developmental dynamics of the epigenome / cis-regulatory elements and human diseases / chromatin regulatory landscapes
