Biography

Karim-Jean Armache is the Laura Isaac Perlmutter Professor of Biochemistry at New York University. His laboratory investigates the roles of chromatin-modifying complexes, including the Polycomb Group (PcG), Trithorax Group (TrxG), and DNA methylation machinery, in regulating gene activation and silencing. The research focuses on the mechanisms by which these complexes maintain the balance of gene expression and ensure the inheritance of chromatin states during replication. Additionally, Armache's work is committed to understanding the disruptions in regulatory pathways that can lead to abnormal development and cancer.
