KVON LAB

Our lab’s research has been featured in the latest issue of The Scientist Digest. See The Scientist Interview.

We are grateful to the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development for supporting our studies on the mechanisms of enhancer mutations in congenital limb disorders over the next five years. See the UCI press release.

We are happy to share our new work Conserved Cis-Acting Range Extender Element Mediates Extreme Long-Range Enhancer Activity in Mammals. Huge congratulations to our PhD student Grace who led the project! See Papers.

Our preprint characterizing mouse developmental enhancer—promoter interaction is published in Nature Genetics. Congratulations to our postdoc Zhuoxin Chen who led the study! See Papers.

We are happy to share our new work Rapid and Quantitative Functional Interrogation of Human Enhancer Variant Activity in Live Mice. Huge congratulations to our MD/PhD student Ethan who led the project! See Papers.

Congratulations to our CMB graduate student Grace Bower, who has been awarded an NIH F31 – Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award from NICHD. Well done!

We are happy to share our new preprint Widespread Increase in Enhancer-Promoter Interactions during Developmental Enhancer Activation in Mammals. Huge congratulations to our postdoc Zhuoxin Chen who led the study! See Papers.

The Kvon lab has received NIH Director’s New Innovator Award. The grant will support our studies on long-range gene regulation over the next 5 years. See UCI press release.
