Research Focus: Regulation of Imprinting during Mammalian Development

We are interested in the regulation of genomic imprinting in mammals, and in how this epigenetic mechanism influences embryonic and extra-embryonic development. Our projects aim at unravelling the role of chromatin modifications and DNA methylation, and investigate the pathological deregulation of imprinting in human diseases and as a consequence of in vitro manipulation.
