About

Juan I. Fuxman Bass is a researcher specializing in gene regulation and protein–DNA interactions, with a particular focus on developing and refining experimental tools to map the complex landscape of transcriptional control in human cells. His work centers on understanding how transcription factors (TFs) bind to specific DNA sequences to regulate gene expression — a fundamental question with broad implications for development, disease, and therapeutics. Fuxman Bass has made notable contributions through his advancement of the yeast one-hybrid (Y1H) assay, a powerful technique used to identify which transcription factors interact with specific human DNA regions. Recognizing that pinpointing TF-DNA interactions at a genome-wide scale is a formidable challenge requiring both experimental and computational approaches, he has worked to enhance the sensitivity, specificity, and throughput of Y1H screens, making them more applicable to human genomic sequences. His methodological refinements, published in 2019 and further elaborated in 2022, have provided the research community with improved tools to systematically decode gene regulatory networks. Though his citation counts are still growing, his focus on enabling technologies positions his work as a meaningful resource for researchers seeking to untangle the transcriptional logic underlying human biology and disease.
