The Adelman lab aims to elucidate how cells react in a rapid yet balanced manner to external signals, at the transcriptional and epigenetic level. We use a combination of genomics, genetics and biochemistry to study the dynamics of gene expression, with a focus on developmental and immune responsive systems.
