So nice to be back home in Korea and excited to be at #OARSI2025! Stop by poster #595 where I’m presenting on chromatin accessibility QTLs in resting/FNF-stimulated primary human chondrocytes. I’ve been integrating eQTL, sQTL, and Hi-C data to better understand gene regulation in osteoarthritis.

Brainwide silencing of prion protein by AAV-mediated delivery of an engineered compact epigenetic editor
Prion disease is caused by misfolding of the prion protein (PrP) into pathogenic self-propagating conformations, leading to rapid-onset dementia and death. However, elimination of endogenous PrP halts...
