Studies aiming at developing novel technological approaches, to answer increasingly challenging questions, represent a fertile field of research of our department. Our scientists, in fact, boast major results, primarily in the context of the studies focused on chromatin (Next Generation Sequencing -NGS- and Proteomic approaches), as well as on the set-up of novel bioinformatics pipelines.
