Although numerous eukaryotic genomes have been sequenced, much still remains to be understood about how the genes in those genomes are regulated. The...
The step-by-step differentiation of embryonic cells into different types of neurons lays the foundation for our sensory responses, motor commands, and...

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 Lieberman laboratory studies cytotoxic T lymphocytes and their role in infection and tumor immunity. They study the molecular pathways used by killer...
The human brain—and the diseases that afflict it—present unique challenges for experimental study, chief among them being tissue availability (only at...
Our laboratory studies how chromosome behavior and positioning influence genome function and evolution, with implications for gene regulation, genome...
