Gregor Mendel Professor of Genetics and of Medicine
A major area of our interest is how eukaryotic cells sense and respond to stress in the form of damage to their genetic material. When cells incur DNA...
Our lab focuses on the molecular nature of innate immune interactions between microbial pathogens and the host. Pathogenic bacteria have evolved complex...
The increasing emergence of bacterial strains resistant to antibiotics is far outpacing our ability to develop novel therapies to treat these infections....
Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
For many years our research group has been interested in the molecular mechanisms of various antibiotics and the fundamental cellular processes they inhibit.... Read more about Daniel Kahne
The Mekalanos laboratory is engaged in the analysis of bacterial virulence and functional genomics. The goal of these studies is to understand how pathogenic... Read more about John Mekalanos
Elliott T. and Onie H. Adams Professor of Biochemistry and Systems Biology
We seek to use the vast knowledge of biology to predictably design biological systems to enhance our fundamental understanding and to provide solutions...
We are exploring pathogen-host interactions, particularly in the context of animal models relevant to human infection of clinically important enteric...
Richard Pearson Strong Professor of Infectious Disease
Malaria remains a major public health threat with more than 225 million people infected worldwide and one fourth of the world's population is at risk for...
