Research Overview

     Dr. Kuzin is currently working on two major research projects. The goal of the first one is to elucidate the mechanisms that regulate expression and recombination of immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) genes. Specifically, he is interested in the role of enhancer specificity in the IgH locus regulation. continued
