Michael J Booth is a Royal Society University Research Fellow at University College London, specializing in Chemical Biology with a focus on DNA and RNA. His research explores the role of cytosine modifications in genomic regulation, including 5-methylcytosine, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, and 5-formylcytosine. He develops advanced sequencing techniques and analytical methods to quantify these modifications at single-base resolution. Booth also investigates synthetic biology, particularly in creating synthetic cells and tissues with light-activated communication and functional aqueous droplet networks. His work bridges chemical biology, biotechnology, and synthetic cell engineering to advance understanding of gene regulation and cellular communication.
