Abstract: The Strome lab investigates the molecular mechanisms used by germ cells to establish and maintain their identity, immortality, and totipotency. They study germ cells in C. elegans using a variety of approaches, including genetics, genomics, and imaging. Their current focus is on regulation of chromatin states and the involvement of those states in transmitting an epigenetic “memory of germline” from parent germ cells to germ cells in offspring.
