CroAGE Project

@croage.bsky.social

CroAGE: funded by #NextGenerationEU & led by @da-bar.bsky.social. We study gene promoters across vertebrates using CAGE, AI & genomics. From zebrafish to humans—toward new diagnostics, antitumor targets & precision medicine. 🇭🇷

Using cutting-edge technologies like CAGE (Cap Analysis of Gene Expression) and AI-driven algorithms, we aim to develop tools to explore promoter architecture & identify novel antitumor targets.
