The lab of Genome Structure & Function, headed by Prof. Kaplan, studies the profound connection between genetic information and its physical organization in space. His research combines experimental and computational methods to gain a mechanistic understanding of how the genome encodes its spatial organization and how this organization conveys biological function in various biological systems and diseases.
