Strands of DNA-like thread coil, loop, and spill upward, evoking the genome's dynamic three-dimensional architecture within the nucleus of a living cell.⁠ ⁠ This special issue, with papers in Science and Science Advances, features single-cell and multiomic studies from the National Institutes of Health Common Fund's 4D Nucleome Program, which examines a fourth dimension of nuclear organization—how this folded structure shapes cell identity, shifts across development and aging, and goes awry in disease.⁠ ⁠ Researchers mapped genome architecture across contexts ranging from the aging and Alzheimer's-affected brain to the failing heart and maturing immune cells, alongside new computational tools for reading this architecture in previously understudied tissue.⁠ Learn more: https://scim.ag/4htc3UT ⁠ ILLUSTRATION CREDIT: A.
