Bacterial cells come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Within a given class, however, cells typically grow and divide in such a way as to maintain...
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...
Bacterial pathogens that grow within human cells are responsible for multiple diseases and millions of deaths worldwide. The primary goal of our research...
Ancient signaling pathways lie at the base of the initiation of immunity, serving to transmit signals from Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) to trigger...
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 Lieberman laboratory studies the innate and adaptive immune response to infection and cancer. They seek to understand how cytotoxic T lymphocytes and...
Elliott T. and Onie H. Adams Professor of Biochemistry and Systems Biology
What can we build with biology? We use a synthetic biology approach to understanding biological systems through design, making new biological structures...
We are exploring pathogen-host interactions, particularly in the context of animal models relevant to human infection of clinically important enteric...
