StatGen Primary Investigators
StatGen members and collaborators awarded multimillion dollar NIH CEGS award for innovative project, The Duke FUNCTION Center: Pioneering the comprehensive identification of combinatorial noncoding causes of disease.
The Duke Function Center will be the first systematic and comprehensive framework for determining the effects of combinations of regulatory elements on gene expression and downstream phenotypes. The expected outcome will be a paradigm shift in human genetic and genomics in which it will become possible to finally understand the full regulatory complexity that controls the expression of human genes.
