Welcome
The Centre for Chromosome Biology at NUI Galway in Ireland hosts an interactive network of researchers investigating topics linked to the biology of genomes.
We are interested in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying chromosome replication, segregation, repair, evolution, chromatin regulation and transcription. These processes are fundamental to our growing understanding of genetics and epigenetics, and have important implications for cancer and disease.
The Centre currently comprises 11 groups with over 90 researchers and support staff. We have a range of technologies available for studying chromosome biology at the molecular, cellular and organismal level.
