Giulio Pavesi from the department of Biomolecular Sciences and Biotechnology at the Universitá degli Studi Milano, in Milan, Italy, will give a talk entitled “In silico prediction of transcription factor binding sites: from chips to ChIPs” on Friday March 12 at 12:00 at the lecture room 473.10 of the PRBB (C/ Dr. Aiguader, 88). He was invited by Fátima Gebauer (CRG).
Pavesi is focused on the development of computational tools and algorithms for the identification of elements regulating gene expression at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. He develops methods for the discovery of conserved transcription factor binding sites in sequences from co-regulated or homologous genes, or for the description of the binding specificity of a given transcription factor. He also works on the integration of expression and sequence data with the final goal of predicting the expression pattern of a gene from the sequence of its regulatory regions, and on the discovery of conserved sequence and structure motifs in non-coding RNAs.
