The Functional Epigenomics Lab studies how chromatin affects cellular programs with a specific focus on the enhancer regulatory function in stem cell states, cancer progression and drug resistance.
Dr. Maia and his research team focus on epigenomic profiling to understand how expression patterns are modulated in different tumor cells, which can lead to individualized treatment for people with cancer.
Dr. Maia leads research efforts with expert faculty to discover why cancer cells are resistant to drug therapies.
Education and training opportunities are available for fellows, graduate students and undergraduates interested in functional epigenomics research.
Contact Dr. Maia about his research or for information about opportunities for research in the Functional Epigenomics Lab.
