4DN Scientific Webinar Series
May 25, 2018
8:00-8:20 am Pacific Time, then 10 minutes Q&A
Amin Allahyar
PhD
Delft University of Technology
Title: Enhancer hubs and loop collisions identified from single-allele topologie
Amin Allahyar performed his PhD (2018) at the Delft University of Technology (Dr. Jeroen de Ridder) where he explored different methods to identify gene expression markers that are predictive of breast cancer survival outcome. There markers are sought to be formed by integrating expression levels of functionally relevant genes represented in interaction networks. He further extended this idea to utilize publicly available expression data to form a breast cancer survival specific network that connects genes that collectively show predictive power beyond level of individual genes. In parallel, he was also responsible for computational analysis regarding MC-4C which was designed to unravel the multi-contact 3D chromatin interactions that occur within the cell nucleus. As a postdoc, he joined the group of Prof. Wouter de Laat to continue on multi-contact analysis but this time for genome wide methods like Hi-C.
8:30-8:50 am Pacific Time, then 10 minutes Q&A
Brad Cairns
PhD
University of Utah
Title: How the Genome Awakens in Zebrafish
The Cairns lab strives to understand chromatin-transcription relationships – with an emphasis on chromatin remodeling mechanisms, germline development, early embryo development, and totipotency - including how these processes are misrelated in cancer.
