We welcomed Junbo Xia from Shanghai Jiao Tong University as an intern this summer.
He is working on a project, Development of deep learning program to identify cells from bioimaging data.
Good luck!

Tadasu Nozaki (Former Graduate Student at NIG)and Prof. Kazuhiro Maeshima (NIG) et. al. together with Drs Soya Shinkai and Shuichi Onami have found euchromatin forms condensed chromatin domains. This finding suggests an innovative model that condensed structure is the default state of chromatin.
