How is the genome like an open book? New research shows cells' 'library system'

The organization of the human genome relies on physics of different states of matter - such as liquid and solid. The findings reveal how the physical nature of the genome changes as cells transform to serve specific functions and point to new ways to potentially better understand disease and to create improved therapies for cancer and genetic disorders.
