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...
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
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...
The focus of this laboratory is to understand the genetic basis of development of form – that is shape, size and proportion during vertebrate development...
Skin, the largest organ we have, protects us from insults and dehydration, and facilitates sensory perception and thermoregulation. These multifaceted...
The muscular dystrophies are progressive disorders of striated muscle leading to breakdown of muscle integrity. There is considerable clinical variability...
Max and Anne Wien Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology
Our laboratory is directed toward both 1) understanding molecular controls and mechanisms over neuron sub-type development, diversity, axon guidance-...
Xander University Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology
Research in our laboratory focuses on the developmental biology of the pancreas. We wish to understand how the pancreas normally develops and use that... Read more about Douglas A. Melton
William Lambert Richardson Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology
Several long-term research projects in human genetics are ongoing in the Morton laboratory. An overall theme is to apply evolving techniques in molecular... Read more about Cynthia Casson Morton
I am a computational biologist studying the role of chromatin structure/dynamics and non-coding regions including enhancers, promoters, insulators and...
Our laboratory utilizes human genetic approaches to gain insight into blood cell production (hematopoiesis) and how this process is perturbed in disease states... Read more about Vijay G. Sankaran
Our laboratory studies molecular control of development and cell differentiation using self-renewing epithelia in the digestive tract as a model system...
Shields Warren-Mallinckrodt Professor of Medical Research
My lab has pioneered various aspects of the microRNA field and continues to make important contributions to this aspect of post-transcriptional control of gene... Read more about Frank John Slack
Data generated by the rapidly advancing DNA sequencing technology provide the complete picture of population genetic variation and sequence divergence...
Our lab is interested in identifying mechanisms that regulate the normal development and function of the human cerebral cortex. The cortex is the largest... Read more about Christopher A. Walsh
