Fussner-Dupas, Eden

I am brand new to UBC and the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, but no stranger to teaching Biochemistry. I am looking forward to teaching BIOC 302 this year and getting to know the scientists and junior scholars here better – so please come and say hello.

I am passionate about both biochemistry and improving mental health and wellness in higher education. If you have thoughts or ideas on this; they are warmly welcomed. My door is open if you find yourself struggling with your health and need someone to point you towards potentially helpful resources.

My research interests are focused on nuclear organisation, especially understanding the in situ structure of chromatin. I use electron microscopy images acquired of specific elements to understand the relationship between DNA, RNA and proteins and how they act in concert to regulate the expression of the genome.
