The paper investigates cell type determination during cardiac differentiation of hiPS cells, finding that cell type specification begins shortly after seeding and is cell-autonomous.

The paper shows CTCF suppresses antisense transcription at divergent promoters without affecting sense transcription, using a combination of genetic and molecular techniques.

The paper analyzes how gene transcription responds to two signals in human cells, finding that combined responses are mostly additive or multiplicative, with some associations between chromatin accessibility and transcriptional outcomes.

This paper introduces clampFISH, a method for detecting RNA with high-gain signal amplification, enabling single-cell and single-molecule resolution using fluorescent probes.
