Welcome to The Centre for Epigenetics
The centre
The Centre for Epigenetics was establi-shed in 2007 as a “Centre of Excellence” funded by The Danish National Research Foundation. The Centre brings together the distinct expertise of five research groups - four of them located at BRIC (University of Copenhagen) and one at DBMB (University of Southern Denmark).
Another 5 years
The Centre for Epigenetics has just got their grant extended for another 5 years together with six other Centres of Excellence, also financed by the Danish National Research Foundation. With the renewal of the grant, the centre will be able to continue and further develop its research activities until spring 2017.
Congratulations to Tony Bou-Kheir who on March 9th, successfully defended his PhD thesis under the title "Charting the human cell the human cell cycle epigenome: Elucidating mechanisms in-volved in microRNA turnover and micro-RNA deregulation in gastric cancer”.
