Monday, January 25, 2016 at 4:37PM Wednesday, January 13, 2016 at 4:26PM Friday, September 4, 2015 at 3:21PM Ting and Brian were interviewed by Harvard Medical School to showcase the Oligopaints technology, and the most recent advances in looking at DNA with super resolution detail, as well as discriminate them based on parental origin. You can find their interviews and videos here!
Monday, August 24, 2015 at 5:21PM LabTV is an initiative to introduce the public to scientists, like our own Ruth McCole! Check it out here: http://www.labtv.com/Home/Profile?researcherId=1568

Friday, May 8, 2015 at 1:47PM Hailing from a pedigree of biophysics, our new postdoctoral fellow Guy Nir aims to uncover the underlying order that governs the structure of chromatin. Like other successful pioneers, Guy will be documenting his quests in his own online lab notebook, which you can follow here.
Tuesday, May 5, 2015 at 3:10PM Brian's breakthrough paper on using Oligopaints to look at the structure of the genome with super resolution has been published in Nature Communications ("Single-molecule super-resolution imaging of chromosomes and in situ haplotype visualization using Oligopaint FISH probes"). This was the product of several successful collaborations, and it enables us to look at DNA with unprecedented detail.
Thursday, October 30, 2014 at 4:40PM Ruth, Chamith, and Ting, along with their collaborator Amnon Koren just published a new paper describing how the copy number, or dosage, of UCEs can change between healthy, cancer, and iPS cells. You can find it published here in Plos Genetics!
Wednesday, October 22, 2014 at 5:06PM Kwasi (Andrews Agbleke) is our newest postdoc/pioneer, and he has been tasked with developing new imaging technologies to help us visualize the genome in its dynamic and intricate glory! Let us all welcome him and wish him luck!
Tuesday, October 7, 2014 at 5:08PM Our newest rotation student, Kaia Mattioli, joins us from the BBS PhD program to combine bioinformatics, FISH analyses, and some population genetics to study ultraconserved element function.
