Biography
-
Ana Pombo investigates mechanisms that regulate 3D genome folding and gene expression during mammalian development and in disease. After her DPhil at University of Oxford, UK, she was the recipient of Royal Society Dorothy Hodgkin Fellowship to continue her work on the spatial organization of transcription in mammalian nuclei. She led her independent lab at the MRC London Institute for Medical Sciences from 2000, before moving her lab to the Max Delbrueck Center for Molecular Medicine in Berlin, in 2013. She currently serves as Deputy Scientific Director of BIMSB and Deputy Scientific Program Deputy of the MDC. Ana received the Robert Feulgen Prize (2007), and elected EMBO member in 2018. She has pioneered the development of Genome Architecture Mapping (GAM), an orthogonal technology to map the 3D structure of chromosomes genome-wide.
