Brian Capell, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor of Dermatology and Genetics (UPenn)
The Capell Lab seeks to answer fundamental questions regarding how epigenetic processes (histone, RNA, DNA) play a role in epithelial diseases such as skin cancer. Our RNA-related research focuses on epitranscriptomics and RNA-modifications (specifically m6A), and how they interface with chromatin and gene regulatory elements during development, homeostasis, and cancer.
