Biography

Josée Dostie is a Professor at the Department of Biochemistry, McGill University. Her research focuses on the role of three-dimensional genome architecture in human health and disease. Specifically, she investigates how the spatial organization of chromatin influences gene expression and cellular differentiation, particularly in the context of malignancies. The Dostie lab utilizes various methods including fluorescence microscopy and advanced genomic techniques such as Hi-C and 5C to study the dynamics of chromatin folding and its implications in gene regulation. Her work contributes to understanding the molecular mechanisms by which long non-coding RNAs and chromatin composition regulate gene expression and how genomic organization affects the onset and progression of diseases, including cancer.
