Emily Bernstein Lab

It was a privilege to be part of the Allis lab. Dave fostered an environment of rigor, curiosity, and kindness- his impact lives on in the many he mentored. Grateful to reconnect at Rockefeller with this extraordinary group. Thank you to the organizers for an inspiring symposium.

🧬 Did you catch our latest paper? A new study from @bernstein_lab in collaboration with EpiCypher dives deep into chromatin remodeling in #melanoma, revealing how the SWI/SNF PBAF chromatin remodeling complex mediates chromatin silencing.

Excited for this summer’s NYC Chromatin Club! Grad students & postdocs: submit your abstracts for a chance to present a poster or talk. Come connect w/ fellow epigenetic New Yorkers! #NYCChromatinClub @DShechter @bernstein_lab @vivrisca @JosefowiczLab @epicypher

"...our research shows that the PBAF complex keeps certain genes shut off in #Melanoma,” said Emily Bernstein, PhD, @bernstein_lab mountsinai.org/about/newsroom… @ElenaGrossi8 @IcahnMountSinai

Congrats Emily and Elena!! Beautiful study that’s really foundational to neural-like states in metastasis

It was wonderful to be part of the group honoring the memory and contributions of David Allis and Gary Felsenfeld to the field of chromatin biology and epigenetics at the National Cancer Institute. @theNCI Thanks to Shiv Grewal @grewalsh, and the organizing committee at NCI for…

🎉 Exciting Announcement! 🎉 “Histone Modifications and Chromatin Structure Symposium” 🗓️ Dates: October 17-18, 2024 📍 Location: National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland The NCI Center of Excellence in Chromosome Biology is delighted to invite you to our upcoming…

🚨Pre-print alert!!🚨 Thrilled to share my postdoc work in the @bernstein_lab @IcahnMountSinai, where we dove into the differences between #swisnf complexes and found an unappreciated role for PBAF at repressive chromatin biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/3)

Had a great time presenting our work at the @nycchromatin Annual Symposium! Thank you @bernstein_lab and the rest of the team for organizing 🙏🏼 #chromatin #epigenetics

Had a great time yesterday at the first annual NYC Chromatin Club!! Thanks to @bernstein_lab and others for organizing. Fantastic keynote by Nada Jabado, lots of groundbreaking chromatin work, and I got to present a poster on some of my postdoc work 🙌#Epigenetics #Chromatin

Truely special experience coming back to @IcahnMountSinai and presenting my work on #NSD1 and #H3K36me2 @HelinLab @SawyersLabMSKCC at the first annual @nycchromatin symposium. Thank you Emily @bernstein_lab for organizing this amazing meeting in memory of Dr. Dave Allis!

Jostes et al. describe how H2A.Z histone chaperones are essential for chromatin and gene regulation in melanoma and put forward a new epigenetic strategy for cancer intervention. @bernstein_lab @sinysoo @TischCancer @IcahnMountSinai Learn more here: ➡️ tinyurl.com/gd351318
