WELCOME TO THE BRACKEN LAB HOMEPAGE
The group is led by Adrian Bracken and was established in 2008 at the Smurfit Institute of Genetics, Trinity College Dublin.
Our lab is focused on understanding the molecular mechanisms of how Polycomb group proteins regulate cell-fate decisions and cancer.
Additionally, we have several exciting ongoing projects in the lab studying the roles of chromatin regulators in developmental disorders and cancer.
We are also studying genetic predisposition to cancer and using our expertise in chromatin biology to explore the contribution of regulatory elements in the 'non-coding genome'.
