Prof. Sylvain Bischof's research investigates epigenetic mechanisms that control gene expression and maintain genome integrity. Utilizing model systems including plants and human cells, he addresses fundamental questions in chromatin biology. His unbiased approaches, such as forward genetic screening and protein-protein/protein-DNA interaction mapping, facilitate the discovery of new insights in this field. He has identified key epigenetic mechanisms and characterized them at the molecular level through a combination of genetics, genomics, proteomics, biochemistry, and microscopy. With a long-term vision, Prof. Bischof aims to apply his findings to enhance plant traits and improve human health.
