The research interests of the Schwarz lab are centered on the use of genetics to probe the cell biology of the nervous system. We use Drosophila, mouse,...
The Seidman laboratory uses genetic techniques to study the molecular basis of inherited human disorders. A central project in the laboratory has been to...
Henrietta B. and Frederick H. Bugher Foundation Professor of Genetics
Work in the Seidman laboratory (Dept of Genetics, HMS) is directed toward identifying gene defects that cause inherited heart disease and defining the...
Vincent and Stella Coates Professor of Neurologic Diseases
Our laboratory is interested in the biochemistry and molecular and cell biology of neuronal degeneration during aging of the mammalian brain, particularly in... Read more about Dennis J. Selkoe
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...
Why do we grow old? Why does aging cause disease? Can we slow aging or even reverse it? These are some of the greatest unsolved questions in biology....
Using a combination of computational and experimental approaches we study the processes that determine whether mammalian cells live or die. Our lab is...
Diabetes and Obesity Genetics. The Soukas Laboratory in the Center for Human Genetic Research and the Diabetes Unit at the MGH seeks to understand the...
Latham Family Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
We work on receptor-ligand interactions and signal transmission across membranes. We use a wide range of structural, cell biological, and single molecule...
For a living cell to function properly, its cellular processes must be strictly controlled not only in time but also in space. We are interested in how...
My laboratory is focused on the biology of brain tumors, in particular glioblastoma and oligodendroglioma. My group is dissecting how cellular heterogeneity... Read more about Mario L. Suvà
We study immune signaling pathways to understand the role of innate immune cells in liver diseases. Our studies focus on molecular mechanisms of inflammation... Read more about Gyongyi Szabo
The major focus of our laboratory is to investigate the cell and molecular biology of cancer, with a focus on the PI 3-Kinase and AKT signaling pathway in...
Obesity is an epidemic health problem worldwide and is a significant risk factor for many human diseases, including diabetes, dyslipidemias, non-alcoholic... Read more about Yu-Hua Tseng
Our laboratory at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is focused on mechanistic study of the pathways that underlie cancer initiation, progression, and drug...
Forst Family Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology
The broad interest of the WAGERS LAB is to identify and analyze tissue-specific stem cell populations in adult animals. This work focuses on understanding...
