Below we are going to delve into Anjali Yadav’s background, hobbies and research aspirations. What are you investigating? In our lab, we study how metabolism affects epigenetic regulation of gene expression in the brain, particularly in the context of substance use disorders, development, and neurodegeneration. My project specifically focuses on understanding how alcohol-derived acetate influences […]
Below we are going to delve into Wesley Saintilnord’s background, hobbies and research aspirations. What are you investigating? I am currently working on understanding how activated transposable elements, which are widely found in cancers due to a global loss of DNA methylation—a key mechanism for keeping these elements silenced—contribute to cancer progression. These elements can […]
Below we are going to delve into Ju Heon Maeng’s background, hobbies and research aspirations. What are you investigating? I am currently working on two projects. First, I am investigating transposable element-derived antigens in patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells upon epigenetic treatment. This project involves analyzing multi-omics data, including long-read CAGE data.Also, I’m studying transposable element […]
Below we are going to delve into Tassia Mangetti Goncalves’ background, hobbies and research aspirations. What are you investigating? I’m working with mammalian whole genome-wide cis-regulatory modules. Cis-regulatory modules are regulatory regions in the genome. Spatiotemporal control of gene expression is of critical importance and appropriate gene expression depends on these regulatory elements. Also, mutations […]
Below we are going to delve into Juan Macias’ background, hobbies and research aspirations. What are you investigating? I am interested in the application of the human pangenome resources to advance our understanding of the genotype to phenotype problem. Particularly around regions previously inaccessible to us. What are possible applications for your research? The pangenome […]
