Hank Bass

Professor of Biological Science

Education

PhD, North Carolina State University, 1992.

Research Interests

Dr. Hank W. Bass's research focuses on the structural dynamics of chromosomes and chromatin. His lab employs 3D imaging, genetics, and cell biology techniques to investigate key processes such as meiosis, the telomere bouquet, and the nuclear envelope LINC complex. Ongoing projects include analyzing DNA replication timing in 3D, high-resolution profiling of chromatin structure to map transcription factor (TF) cistrome occupancy, and exploring the role of G-quadruplex (G4) DNA in gene regulation.
