Planned projects use a combination of advanced approaches, including molecular genetics, live cell imaging, biochemistry, genomics, and structural biology , to address fundamental questions in epigenetics. Postdoctoral scientists will have opportunities to receive rigorous training in latest approaches in chromatin and epigenetics research. The fellow will also benefit from state-of-the-art research facilities and the highly collaborative community at NYU. Further information about our research can be found at:
