Cluster people

Dr Andrew Nelson

Associate Professor - Cluster Co-lead

A developmental biologist interested in gene regulatory control of cell fate in the early vertebrate embryo and mammalian placenta. We use functional genomics and transcriptomics to investigate how cellular identities are programmed at the level of chromatin.
