RNA Innovation Seminar: Graham Erwin, Stanford University
Discovering and Targeting Repeat Expansions in Human Disease
HYBRID SEMINAR:
In-person: BSRB, ABC seminar rooms
Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_iXCxSumHSdajmTSVHFT7oQ
Abstract: Expansion of a single repetitive DNA sequence, termed a tandem repeat (TR), is known to cause more than 50 diseases. However, repeat expansions are often not explored beyond neurological and neurodegenerative disorders. Here, I will discuss efforts to identify and target repeat expansions in human disease, with a focus on neurodegenerative disease and cancer.
