Michael B. Eisen, PhD | HHMI.org
Michael Eisen is interested in short snippets of non-coding DNA – so-called transcriptional “enhancers” – that regulate gene expression in animal genomes. Using Drosophila as a model organism, Eisen and his team combine evolutionary and computational genomics, high-resolution imaging, genome engineering, and classical biochemistry and genetics to study the greater than 1,000
