Yoav Gilad 41st Lorne Genome Conference 2020

Yoav Gilad

The Gilad Lab is focused on moving beyond simple explorations of gene expression levels, to studies of variation in regulatory mechanisms, response phenotypes, and ultimately – complex traits (including disease). Our lab uses multiple complementary approaches to characterize variation in genetic and epigenetic regulatory mechanisms within and between species. By integrating gene expression data from multiple tissues and cell types with epigenetic profiles, chromatin states, post-transcriptional modifications, and other molecular data, we can generate specific hypotheses about regulatory mechanisms and learn about their relative importance for different molecular and phenotypic outcomes.
