Research summary
AI-generated

Lucas Carter's research examines how the three-dimensional organization of the genome inside the cell nucleus—things like chromatin packing, nuclear lamins, and DNA folding patterns—relates to gene activity and cell behavior. Work spans topics such as chromatin structure imaging, gene editing (CRISPR) screens, RNA regulation, and applications to areas like cancer biology (glioblastoma) and bone tissue regeneration. The lab combines molecular biology, genomics, and microscopy/imaging methods to study how genome architecture shapes cell function.
