Research in the Howley laboratory is focused on the molecular biology of the papillomaviruses and the role of these viruses in carcinogenesis. Several...
Skin, the largest organ we have, protects us from insults and dehydration, and facilitates sensory perception and thermoregulation. These multifaceted...
The focus of my research is to understand mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to kinase inhibitors and to translate laboratory based observations...
Associate Professor, Department of Pediatric Oncology
Our laboratory research program is centered in understanding the structure and function of ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes, with emphasis on...
Dr. Kaelin's research seeks to understand how, mechanistically, mutations affecting specific genes cause cancer, with a particular focus on particular tumor... Read more about William Kaelin
How nutrient uptake and utilization is altered in cancer, how the host systemic metabolic state can influence these alterations and in turn, get affected...
Organisms possess a blueprint for life, which they transmit to their progeny. DNA (genetic information) is a major constituent of life's blueprint. It is...
Neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease are diseases caused when proteins abnormally fold and aggregate in specific cell types of... Read more about Vikram Khurana
The Kim Laboratory has pioneered the use of stem cell biology approaches for the study of adult lung progenitor cells and lung cancer. Through a combination of... Read more about Carla Kim
To maintain the differentiated tissues in any organism, cell-type specific genes must remain ‘on' for the lifetime of the organism in one cell type, and ‘...

Our laboratory studies the mechanisms of epigenetic regulation of DNA virus infection. We are interested in the mechanisms by which human cells sense...
The muscular dystrophies are progressive disorders of striated muscle leading to breakdown of muscle integrity. There is considerable clinical variability...
The Langenau laboratory research focus is to uncover relapse mechanisms that enhance growth and tumor propagating cell frequency in pediatric cancer....
Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
The overarching goal of the Lassar lab is to understand how different cells types (i.e., articular or epiphyseal chondrocytes, ligaments and synoviocytes...
Our major goal is to understand how lncRNAs interact with chromatin complexes to achieve locus-specific and temporally specific gene expression patterns. We... Read more about Jeannie T. Lee
