Mutate, model, predict: uncovering how regulatory elements encode gene expression dynamics

How does our genome ensure that the right genes are expressed in the right cells and at the right time during development? Although much of this control is encoded in non-coding, cis-regulatory elements, we still lack the ability to predict how regulatory DNA contributes to precise gene expression outputs. Read more
