Gene Regulation & Epigenetics
George A. Garinis
Research in our laboratory is focused on: a. The impact of genome instability on pathways associated with longevity, aging and age-related pathology: We aim to identify common ...

Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Several risk factors including obesity, type II diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and dyslipidemia predispose...
Androniki Kretsovali
Our main research interests are the investigation of molecular processes that regulate embryonic stem cell pluripotency and neuronal regeneration...
Matthieu Lavigne
Research interests of my group are centered on the characterization of molecular transactions ruling healthy/disease gene expression programs. We aim for better fundamental understanding of essential chromatin/cellular...
George Mavrothalassitis
Our long standing interest is the signal regulated transcriptional control in development and disease. Specifically the ETS genes within the RTK/ras/erk pathway in normal and tumor development...
Evgenia Ntini
I started my lab at IMBB in September 2021 with research objectives in RNA biology and gene regulation. A specific aim of our research is to understand the distinctive modes of co-transcriptional processing...
Charalampos G. Spilianakis
Regulation of gene expression can be accomplished "in cis" by several regulatory elements exerting their action on physically linked genes on the same chromosome. A "trans" regulation aspect of gene expression...
Constantine Stratakis
Dr. Stratakis has been successful in employing genetic linkage and other genome-wide tools to identify genetic defects responsible for a number of human diseases starting with the identification of the protein...
Iannis Talianidis
We study epigenetic mechanisms regulating liver development, hepatocarcinogenesis and metabolism. Our research aims at understanding the interplay between chromatin modifying enzymes...

Joseph Papamatheakis
Since 2014, the group has shifted research activities to focus on cancer biology. Recent advances in Molecular Biology had a dramatic impact in understanding the mechanisms that drive oncogenic pathways...
Despina Alexandraki
We are interested on the mechanisms governing gene expression regulated by DNA-binding transcription factors and chromatin regulators in response to environmental changes. Our reference system is metalloregulated...
