Research interests
- Understand how chromatin states relate to gene expression
- How epigenomes of various stem cells change during differentiation; and how the characteristic tissue-specific epigenomes change during reprogramming
- How chromatin modification (DNA methylation and histone modification) are established and maintained; in particular identification of genomic features that allow prediction of epigenetically labile genes
- Contribution of chromatin state to variability or "noise" in transcription
- Computational analysis of epigenetics modification patterns
- Genome organization and evolution
