About the Author
Peter Cook received his doctorate at The University of Oxford. As a Professor of Cell Biology at the University of Oxford and a Senior Research Fellow of Brasenose College, he teaches students of biology and medicine. His research interests include the analysis of the way chromosome structure influences gene activity. He is currently combining the techniques of molecular biology with those of high-resolution imaging to map active sites of replication and transcription within three-dimensional nuclear space. These studies have led to the surprising finding that active genes are not spread diffusely throughout the nucleus; rather, they are concentrated in discrete sites or 'factories' where the appropriate molecular machines (ie the DNA and RNA polymerases) are concentrated.
