Software package makes gene regulation easier to study—and tweak
Phys.org • 4/2/2026
Summary
A new study published in Nature Methods introduces CREsted, a software package developed by a research team led by Prof. Stein Aerts (VIB & KU Leuven). This tool facilitates the analysis and design of gene regulatory elements, addressing the challenges of understanding gene regulation across various datasets, tissues, and species.
