Biography

Dr. Marisa S. Bartolomei is the Perelman Professor in the Department of Genetics at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine. Her research focuses on the genetic mechanisms of genomic imprinting and X inactivation using mouse models. The laboratory investigates how environmental factors, such as assisted reproductive technologies, disrupt these critical processes, revealing the importance of genetic imprinting in normal mammalian development. Dr. Bartolomei's work has significant implications for understanding developmental biology and genetics, particularly the role of non-coding RNAs and DNA methylation in these processes. She has mentored numerous graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, contributing to advancements in the field of epigenetics and reproductive biology through high-impact publications.
