Massively-parallel approaches to understand the human noncoding genome and transcriptome
Professor Neville Sanjana, NYU, United States Abstract Professor Sanjana will present recent work from his lab on two topics: variant-to-function challenges in noncoding genomics and the development of RNA-targeting CRISPR screens to pinpoint functional noncoding RNAs. First, since most disease-associated GWAS variants map to noncoding regions, we combined ancestrally diverse biobanks, massively parallel CRISPR screens, […]
