Research summary

Hannah L. Hertz studies fundamental molecular and cellular biology, focusing on how genetic material is organized and expressed inside cells. Recent work examines how RNA Polymerase (the enzyme that copies genes into RNA) forms organized compartments to control the transcription of gene clusters, as well as how a protein involved in chromosome segregation (HCP-1) behaves in the germline cells of the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans, a common model organism in genetics research.
