| Research Abstract |
Development of the best computational method for enhancer detection, capable of identifying enhancers from ChIP-chip and ChIP-seq libraries with a better comparative performance than other published methods for enhancer prediction (Fernandez and Miranda-Saavedra, 2012).
Development of a novel method for the reconstruction of Transcriptional Regulatory Modules (TRMs) (Hutchins et al, 2013).
The above methods have provided new and fundamental insights into the STAT3 controlled anti-inflammatory response network (Hutchins et al, Blood, 2012; Hutchins et al, JAK-STAT, 2013).
