3D Genome and Epigenetics lab

Spatial Transcriptomics

We use multiplexed smRNA-FISH to assay changes in gene expression during development in mouse embryos and gastruloids

Optical Reconstruction Of Chromatin Architecture

We trace chromatin conformations in cells and tissues to understand the biophysical processes underlying genome organization

Measuring the feedback between Chromatin folding and epigenetic state

Our ultimate goal is to disentangle the complex relationship between epigenetics and genome organization and how epigenetic systems use 3D genome organization to encode cellular memory during development.
