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
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...
David Wesley Gaiser Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
Transcriptional regulation in response to environmental and developmental cues is mediated by the combinatorial and synergistic action of specific DNA-...
George Jacob and Jacqueline Hazel Leder Professor of Genetics
The laboratory studies the genetic basis by which form and structure are regulated during vertebrate development. In this work, we combine classical...
Director, Biological and Biomedical Sciences (BBS) Graduate Program Professor of Cell Biology
Our research is devoted to understanding the regulation of neuronal connectivity and synaptogenesis. We combine genetic approaches with molecular biology...
Within cells macromolecules form complex intertwined networks of functionally interacting components. The molecular mechanisms underlying biological...
Our laboratory at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is focused on mechanistic study of the pathways that underlie cancer initiation, progression, and drug...
We are exploring pathogen-host interactions, particularly in the context of animal models relevant to human infection of clinically important enteric...
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
My laboratory’s research focuses on the skeletal system. We employ a “bedside to bench to bedside” approach in order to delineate biologic pathways that...
Commensal intestinal bacteria participate in digestion of the host diet, provide essential amino acids and vitamins, and secrete metabolites that control...
A critical step in eukaryotic gene regulation is the control of transcription across the chromatin template. While transcription has been extensively...
Richard Pearson Strong Professor of Infectious Disease
Malaria remains a major public health threat with more than 225 million people infected worldwide and one fourth of the world's population is at risk for...
Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
We are interested in how kinases in general, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3K) in particular, control malignant transformation. The work of our...
