Lóránt Székvölgyi Lab – MTA-DE Momentum Genome architecture and recombination laboratory

Research and news

Our research lies at the crossroad of genetics, molecular biology and biophysics. We study the architecture of eukaryotic chromatin focusing on molecular mechanisms that drive DNA recombination events.
