Roel Neijts
Postdoc
Institute Pasteur
Title: “Exploring the TAD: specific enhancer-promoter interactions within regulatory domains”
Roel Neijts is a post-doc in the lab of François Spitz at Institut Pasteur (Paris, France) since May 2017. He is interested in the specificity and dynamics of long range interactions between enhancers and promoters during embryogenesis. Roel is developing tools to visualize promoter-enhancer interactions – coupled to transcription dynamics – in real time, together with the lab of Thomas Gregor, as well as investigates in vivo how modifications of genome architectural elements may impact developmental robustness. Roel performed his PhD (2017) in het laboratory of Jacqueline Deschamps at the Hubrecht Institute (Utrecht, the Netherlands), on the regulatory landscapes of Hox clusters and on the regulatory mechanisms of Cdx genes during mouse development.
