Jake Harris

Jake Harris is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences. His research focuses on chromatin, gene expression, cellular memory, epigenetics, and immune response, particularly in the context of plant-pathogen interactions. Harris investigates how chromatin dynamics influence gene expression in plants and explores potential applications for enhancing plant resistance to pathogens. His work integrates genomics, bioinformatics, and molecular biology techniques. Further details about his research and collaborations can be found on his profile page.

C. Jake Harris is a researcher in the Department of Plant Sciences at the University of Cambridge, focusing on epigenetics, plant immunity, and chromatin dynamics. His work explores how epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation and chromatin remodeling, regulate gene expression and immune responses in plants. Harris investigates the roles of chromatin-associated proteins and small RNA pathways in mediating plant stress responses and disease resistance. His research also delves into the molecular mechanisms of DNA methylation readers and their interactions with chromatin structures. By combining genetic, biochemical, and genomic approaches, Harris contributes to understanding the complex interplay between epigenetic regulation and plant immunity.
