Research project funded by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences to study the impact of human genetic variation on 3D genome organization in immune cells, using computational and experimental approaches.
Description
The project aims to understand how differences in genomes, coupled with environmental factors, influence biological processes and disease outcomes by studying the 3D organization of the genome in human immune cells. It addresses gaps in knowledge about how genetic variants impact 3D genome structure and gene regulation, leveraging computational and experimental methods.
