Congrats to Xinyao and Xie Chen! In eukaryotes, multiple transcription factors bind cooperatively to a regulatory region on genomic DNA to control gene expression. In this paper (bit.ly/3GV1BoP), we present an experimental metric for quantifying such cooperativity.

How do nucleosomes encode genome organization principles?nature Johns Hopkins Medicine "Native nucleosomes intrinsically encode genome organization principles" The research investigates whether individual nucleosomes contain sufficient intrinsic information for 3D genomic

"Native nucleosomes know where to go!” Our Condense-seq paper is now published in Nature! 📄 nature.com/articles/s4158… I’m deeply grateful to my PhD advisor Taekjip Ha and our incredible collaborators The Muir Lab , Bin Zhang , Erika Pearce, and Ben Garcia lab!!

Check out this tour de force study by Sangwoo Park and his incredible team of collaborators. Biophysical properties of single nucleosomes are responsible for A and B compartments in cell nucleus.

Amazing work from the HaLab, and this interplay between biophysical properties and genome organization are so cool! Congrats to Sangwoo and an amazing team.

Johns Hopkins neuroscientist Uli Mueller came to the U.S. for the chance to do research he couldn't do anywhere else. Now, he’s concerned those opportunities are slipping away as funding becomes less reliable. Read more: hub.jhu.edu/2025/05/21/us-… #ResearchSavesLives
