“Central Asian Law: Legal Cultures and Business Environments in Central Asia” is a 4-year research and training project funded by the European Commission’s H2020 MSCA-RISE programme (project number 870647), which runs from 01/03/2020 through 28/02/2024. The project aims to produce new knowledge and policy insights on the interlinkages between legal cultures, governance and business environment in

The Chromium Epi Multiome ATAC + Gene Expression platform enables direct, simultaneous measurement of 3' gene expression and chromatin accessibility within single cells. This multiomic technique provides a detailed view of gene regulation by profiling both the epigenomic and transcriptomic landscapes from the same nuclei. It leverages bulk transposition of nuclei for efficient data collection. The
