Dynamic Enhancers Orchestrate Development
Evgeny Kvon, a geneticist at the University of California, Irvine, fell in love with molecular biology when he learned about the experiments that led to the discovery of DNA as the carrier of genetic information in high school. Now, as a group leader, Kvon explores how enhancers, which are non-coding regulatory DNA elements, orchestrate the precise spatiotemporal transcription of genes during mammalian development.
