  • The study focuses on neurodegenerative diseases, specifically tauopathies like Pick's disease and Alzheimer's, investigating their regulatory mechanisms through epigenomic variations.
  • Researchers identified key regulatory changes associated with disease progression, revealing potential new therapeutic targets and linking specific non-coding regions and transcription factor binding to target genes.
  • They validated findings using CRISPR techniques and created an interactive database to visualize transcription factor occupancy and regulatory networks in single cells.
