I have a mechanistic interest into genome-wide and locus specific regulation and fine-tuning of tissue-specific gene expression. We are interested in the 3D-organization of genome within the nuclear space, non-coding RNAs and epigenetic modifications especially methylation and hydroxymethylation. The interaction of these linear and 3-dimentional mechanisms in gene regulation within the healthy brain and the neurodegenerative diseases is the primary interest.
For a very long time we have been working on a specific familial balanced translocation t(8;20) segregating with early onset cerebellar ataxi and use this translocation in learning about the organization and the function of the genome around the breakpoints. The synapse associated DLGAP4 gene which spans one of the breakpoints became my favorite gene over the years.
I do not like being limited by the technical short-comings when I need to find answers to biological questions. Therefore, I have a great interest in developing novel methods based on in situ hybridization both at RNA and DNA level, and I try novel probe technologies and develop new nuclear preparation methods in order to study the genome organization by pushing the resolution limits from different sides . We think multidiciplinary projects are always exciting. Over the years, we have been collaborating with DTU Nanotech in developing lab-on-a-chip devices for genetic analyses.
