Although numerous eukaryotic genomes have been sequenced, much still remains to be understood about how the genes in those genomes are regulated. The...

A basic problem in biology concerns how cells destroy their own proteins. The elimination of misfolded, and therefore potentially toxic, proteins is...

What can we build with biology? We use a synthetic biology approach to understanding biological systems through design, making new biological structures...

My research focuses on understanding the relationship between genotype and phenotype, with a special interest in how biochemistry, molecular design, and...
