The Lieberman laboratory studies the innate and adaptive immune response to infection and cancer. They seek to understand how cytotoxic T lymphocytes and...
We are studying cancer genetics using the zebrafish animal model as an in vivo system, in combination with RNAi knockdown of critical genes in human tumor...
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-...
Dorothy and Milton Flier Professor of Biomedical Science and Genetics
We are working to understand (i) how the human genome varies from person to person, and (ii) how inherited genome variation affects the biology of neurons...
The Mekalanos laboratory is engaged in the analysis of bacterial virulence and functional genomics. The goal of these studies is to understand how pathogenic... Read more about John Joseph Mekalanos

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
The Naxerova lab’s research spans a variety of topics in cancer genetics and somatic evolution. We use interdisciplinary approaches to study the origins and... Read more about Kamila Naxerova
Though it has historically focused on fundamental biological questions, the Novina lab places a significant emphasis on identifying unmet medical needs...
The vertebrate immune system is capable of specifically recognizing and responding to an enormous number of antigens. The interaction with antigen is...
Our laboratory aims to understand normal cell division mechanisms and to discover cell division defects that are unique to cancer cells. We take a range...
I am a computational biologist studying the role of chromatin structure/dynamics and non-coding regions including enhancers, promoters, insulators and...
Our goal is to identify differences between normal and cancerous breast tissue, determine their consequences, and use this information to improve the...
We are interested in the development of the vertebrate musculo-skeletal axis. Using chicken and mouse embryos as model systems, we combine developmental... Read more about Olivier Pourquie
Immune-mediated diseases such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis are not caused by an isolated insult resulting in a single dysfunctional gene or pathway,...
I do theoretical and experimental work in human population genetics and genomics. The field is moving quickly right now thanks to new genomic technologies...
