Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
The Adelman lab aims to elucidate how cells react in a rapid yet balanced manner to external signals, at the transcriptional and epigenetic level. We use...
Our laboratory at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a basic and translational oncology laboratory focused on studying pancreatic cancer and other RAS-driven...
The broad focus of the Alt lab is the elucidation of mechanisms that generate antigen receptor diversity in the Immune system and mechanisms that maintain... Read more about Frederick W. Alt
There is now overwhelming evidence indicating that VEGF, TGFβ, PDGF, and Notch among others, the molecules that are essential for vascular formation, are...
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...
Although numerous eukaryotic genomes have been sequenced, much still remains to be understood about how the genes in those genomes are regulated. The...
Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
Our lab studies eukaryotic gene expression. We are concentrating on three areas: (A) the functions and interactions of the RNA polymerase II (RNApII)...
Diverse control mechanisms converge to ensure that gene transcripts are expressed and processed accurately. Dissection of these interactions has proven...
Dr. Daly's lab focuses on computational approaches to understanding the genetics of disease with a strategy of integrating powerful techniques from human...
My group is broadly interested in the evolution of transcriptional networks in animals. Whole genome sequence for a wide variety of organisms has shown us...
The step-by-step differentiation of embryonic cells into different types of neurons lays the foundation for our sensory responses, motor commands, and...
The Ebert laboratory focuses on the molecular basis and treatment of hematologic malignancies, with a particular focus on myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS...
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...
The human brain is a highly organized structure containing myriad axon tracts that follow precise pathways and make predictable connections, yet only a...
Mice live 3 years, dogs 15 years and humans 100 years. How does Nature change the lifespan of species? We are trying to uncover the molecular basis for...
Bullard Professor of Neurogenetics in the Department of Genetics
My laboratory is focused on understanding nervous system disease using molecular genetic strategies, beginning with human patients and proceeding through...
Recent advances in genomics now make it possible to consider enumerating all of the genetic lesions in specific cancers. High throughput approaches are...
