How the Three dimensional Genome is Being Mapped by Scientists

A team of researchers discuss in this report the computational methods used to determine the three dimensional shape of the genome. They discuss the parallel development of full-genome mapping techniques and advanced computational methods and how these two things come together to create a more complete view of genome structure in the 3D form and how the 3D form relates to the function of the genome.
