Center for Epigenomics
Technology Platforms

A genome is more than just an abstract sequence of nucleotides — it is a collection of DNA molecules packaged inside of our cells. Epigenomic technologies allow us to look beyond the genome sequence, revealing information about how the genome actually exists in individual cells: bound by proteins, modified by enzymes, and folded inside the dynamic 3-dimensional space of the cell's nucleus. This epigenetic information is critical for understanding how each cell type in the human body functions during normal development, and how their function goes awry in disease.

Technologies

Current research at the Center for Epigenomics explores the function of multiple aspects of the epigenome in the context of human biology and disease — these aspects include chromatin accessibility, transcription factor binding, histone modification, and 3D chromatin architecture, in both bulk samples and in single cell resolution.
