Our lab studies the development, function, and dysfunction of somatosensory and viscerosensory circuits that mediate our sense of touch and sensations...
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...
We are interested in mechanisms whereby bacterial pathogens cause disease and in defining and testing immune protective mechanisms relevant to prevention...
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

Despite the growing recognition of the importance of the microbiota to humans, there are fundamental aspects of the microbiota and its relation to the...
We are interested in the molecular mechanisms by which proteins are transported across the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. Proteins are transported...
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...
We study genetic influences on human behavioral and cognitive variation, and use genetic data to understand the biological basis of neuropsychiatric disorders.
My laboratory studies the biology of the adipocyte, with specific emphasis on deciphering the transcriptional pathways that promote adipogenesis and regulate... Read more about Evan D. Rosen
