Using Bio-functional Polymers – A Novel Therapeutic Approach to Prevent Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
A bio-functional synthetic polymer that is able to perform the novel application of preventing intraocular retinal scarring without any adjuvant pharmacologic agents.
FLAMINGO: Understanding genome structures in the 3D space
We developed a highly scalable algorithm, FLAMINGO, to reconstruct the 3D chromosome structures at unprecedented resolution and unraveled the structural basis of chromatin interactions, long-range QTLs and high-order multi-way interactions.
