Center for Epigenomics @ UC San Diego
@CEpigenomics
Est. @UC San Diego to answer human health and science questions through epigenomic research, tech & partnerships. http://epigenome.ucsd.edu (Director: Bing Ren)
It's not just genetics. Or just lifestyle. Disease & peak health are both just expressions of an incredibly complicated ongoing physiological mosaic. One must account for genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, phophoproteomics, and much more. Focusing on…
Friends of C4E: Please cast your vote for Quan Zhu’s eye-catching cellular map of the human developing heart in UC San Diego’s Art of Science competition. Each color in this image, which was generated with MERFISH, represents a distinct cell type. pollunit.com/polls/2025-art…
Today is the big day! The Center for Epigenomics is about developing conceptual breakthroughs for diseases that have long remained mysterious and difficult to treat. Your gift as part of Triton Giving Days goes straight toward that mission. Thanks! tritongivingday.ucsd.edu/campaigns/cent…
Tomorrow is the big day! Please consider making a contribution of your choosing to the UC San Diego Center for Epigenomics as part of Triton Giving Day (campaign is open early — you can give now!).

After years of visionary leadership, Prof. Bing Ren is stepping down as Director of the UC San Diego Center for #Epigenomics. We thank him for his dedication to advancing epigenomics research and setting C4E up for continued success. Wishing him the best in his next chapter!
We are proud to announce Bing Ren, PhD, as the new Scientific Director & CEO of the NYGC. Dr. Ren brings his expertise in the fields of genomics & epigenetics to the NYGC & Columbia University, where he will hold a joint appointment. For more on Dr. Ren: bit.ly/3DJXtah
New research from #UCSanDiego reveals a genomic link between air pollution and lung cancer in people who’ve never smoked. 🚭 The study found that environmental exposures can cause the same DNA mutations typically seen in smokers. 💨 bit.ly/4ncOY9o #AirPolution
C4E Senior Associate Dir. Allen Wang is featured in this article from Sanford Burnham Prebys on the ongoing CIAO longitudinal study of local residents 100 years and older. “A cell’s epigenome is shaped by a lifetime of environmental influences,” says Wang. newswise.com/articles/ciao-…

Senior Associate Dir. Allen Wang presents at today’s 10x Genomics User mtg on the work of C4E to identify disease-specific entities for heart, lung & liver ailments leveraging Droplet Paired Tag, Hi C & other techniques to create multiplexed single nucleus epigenomic profiling.
We’re back with our second in a series of virtual symposia, this time on the 4D Nucleome. Join us via zoom May 9 for a deeper look not only at how the genome is organized, but how it changes over time. Register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
C4E is happy to invite you to our next San Diego Chromatin Club meeting, NOW ONLINE ONLY! Our next Zoom meeting is Tuesday, April 8th, 2025, 11am - 12pm (PT), featuring Dr. Kyle Gaulton (UCSD) and Sarah Traynor (Research Scientist, Active Motif)!
We recently welcomed students from the Soll Center for Student Opportunity at Claremont McKenna College, who spent part of spring break touring our labs as part of a “Networking Trek” of biotech careers. The students impressed us with their deep, hypothesis-worthy questions. 🔬
