Dr. Khuri is a graduate of the University of London, UK. Her early career was in molecular biology and biochemistry, and she gradually moved to bioinformatics with a focus on functional genomics. She is fascinated by the three-dimensionality of transcriptional regulation in terms of chromatin remodeling, and the role this plays in the time and space specificity of gene use. Dr. Khuri established CCS’s bioinformatics data analysis and collaborations infrastructure.
