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
Though much of what defines a human is encoded in the sequence of our DNA, many additional factors influence how this genetic information is manifest. For... Read more about Bradley E. Bernstein
The step-by-step differentiation of embryonic cells into different types of neurons lays the foundation for our sensory responses, motor commands, and...
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 laboratory is using cellular, molecular, bioengineering, and computational biology tools to understand how mechanical forces generated by the flow of...
Recent advances in genomics now make it possible to consider enumerating all of the genetic lesions in specific cancers. High throughput approaches are...
Our lab is focused on development and application of proteomics-based methods for in-depth analysis of key molecular events in tumorogenesis. Given the...
Though it has historically focused on fundamental biological questions, the Novina lab places a significant emphasis on identifying unmet medical needs...
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...
Our laboratory studies how chromosome behavior and positioning influence genome function and evolution, with implications for gene regulation, genome...
Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
We are interested in how kinases in general, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3K) in particular, control malignant transformation. The work of our...
