SLU Orin Smith Auditorium and Zoom Webinar

“A single-molecule and single-cell view of normal and pathogenic gene regulation”

Biography:

Andrew B. Stergachis is an Assistant Professor of Medicine and Genome Sciences at the University of Washington. Andrew received undergraduate degree in Biochemistry and Chemistry from the University of Chicago, an MD and PhD in Genome Sciences from the University of Washington, and clinical training in Internal Medicine and Medical Genetics from the Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Dr. Stergachis’ research focuses on how alterations in the non-coding genome impact human health and disease, with a specific focus on rare non-coding variants that cause Mendelian conditions. To address this question, his laboratory develops and applies single-molecule chromatin fiber sequencing approaches to unravel the functional impact of non-coding genetic and epigenetic variants. In addition, he is an attending in the Medical Genetics clinic where he works with individuals with rare diseases.
