Academic interests

Scientific research:    

Transcriptional regulation in the immune system.

Focus on development, cell fate decisions and malignant transformation.

Ikaros:      A zinc finger (ZnF) transcription factor (Ikzf1).

Required for proper hematopoietic development.

Important tumor suppressor in the lymphoid lineage.

Advances due to the new technology of High Throughput Sequencing
