#61 3D genome organization and GRiNCH with Da-Inn Erika Lee - a podcast by Roman Cheplyaka

In this episode, Jacob Schreiber interviews Da-Inn Erika Lee about
data and computational methods for making sense of 3D genome structure. They
begin their discussion by talking about 3D genome structure at a high level
and the challenges in working with such data. Then, they discuss a method
recently developed by Erika, named GRiNCH, that mines this data to
identify spans of the genome that cluster together in 3D space and
potentially help control gene regulation.
