Claudia Kleinman, PhD is a multi-qualified, transdisciplinary researcher who combines the application of molecular biology, computer science, statistics and evolutionary biology to study biological systems on multiple levels — from the molecular and single cell level to environmental influences on the genome (i.e.Ìýepigenetics). Her research aims to advance our understanding of cancers and brain disorders by decrypting the fundamental mechanisms regulating gene expression, and their interplay with genetic and epigenetic factors.ÌýIn 2021, Science Quebec named her paper in Nature Genetics,Ìý, as one of Quebec’sÌý.ÌýHer current projects continue to exploreÌýhow complex genetic and epigenetic interactions lead to specific diseases.ÌýÌý
