Volker Brendel works in bioinformatics and computational genomics, developing software tools and analysis methods to study how genomes are organized and how genes are turned on and off. Recent projects include tools for evaluating genome assemblies, mapping where genes begin their transcription, and analyzing DNA methylation (chemical marks on DNA that affect gene activity), applied to organisms such as plants and social insects.
