Henriette O’Geen is a Senior Project Scientist at the UC Davis Genome Center where she leads the epigenome editing program in the lab of Dr. David Segal. She received her PhD in Applied Genetics from the University of Technology in Vienna, Austria. During her postdoc at UC Davis, she engaged in nationwide collaborative initiatives including the ENCODE and REMC projects using (epi)genomics approaches to unravel transcriptional networks governing key biological processes such as development, differentiation and cell identity. Dr. O’Geen’s current research is dedicated to deciphering the complex rules governing heritable reprogramming of gene expression. Through this work, she aims to shed light on fundamental biological processes and offer novel insights for the epigenetic treatment of human disease with a focus on neurological disorders.
