GENOMIC FEATURES ORIGINATING FROM THIS LAB No data available

STATEMENT OF RESEARCH INTERESTS

The main focus of the lab is identifying gene networks involved in the control of early steps of muscle differentiation. We are in particular interested in the regulation of myogenesis by retinoic acid.

To do so, we use candidate genes, transcriptome and promoter analysis approaches.

We are also investigating the role of acetylcholinesterase and related enzymes during development.
