MRG-Grammar

MRG-GRammar proves a new strategy for deciphering the rules of gene regulation. We combine oligo library technologies and high-throughput analysis to generate large biological datasets that systematically explore relevant subsets of regulatory landscapes. This project was funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under grant agreement no. 664918.  MRG-Grammar, together with resident artist Anna Dumitriu, were selected as a Future Emerging Art and Technology (FEAT) team.
