Functional Genomics
This research area involves the use and/or development of high throughput experimental approaches to understand the cellular function of variants, genes, and regulatory elements. HGS faculty working in this area deploy a powerful suite of genomic technologies – including genome editing, single cell sequencing, multi-omic profiling and massively parallel reporter assays – in both human cells and model systems.
