Introduction

The University of Lausanne Center of Integrative Genomics (CIG) is a vibrant, well-funded department with a focus on functional genomics and equipped with modern core facilities (see ). It is embedded in the broader Lausanne research environment that includes two universities (UNIL, EPFL), the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, Ludwig Center for Cancer Research, University Hospital (CHUV), and a cluster of biotech companies flourishing in the larger Lake Geneva area.

Presentation

The Gatfield lab investigates how gene expression is regulated at the RNA level and how these mechanisms influence physiological processes in health and disease. We combine molecular, cellular, and in vivo approaches to uncover how RNA-based regulation shapes metabolism, signalling, and cellular function. Our work frequently employs high-throughput sequencing-based methods, such as ribosome profiling, along with extensive bi...
