The Molecular Genomics lab investigates genome regulation, chromatin architecture and transcriptional mechanisms. We use and develop techniques that track nascent transcription at a nucleotide-resolution, measuring rate-limiting steps of transcription at genes and enhancers. The broad scope of Your project is to gain mechanistic understanding on how chromatin architecture and transcription are coordinated at genes and enhancers, and how cells orchestrate transcriptional program in physiologically relevant settings, such as acute stress responses, differentiation and disease progression.
