We are interested in the molecular mechanisms by which proteins are transported across the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. Proteins are transported...
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,...
Protein biosynthesis is a complex process encompassing translation, folding and modifications, and selective targeting to the correct cellular location....
Using a combination of computational and experimental approaches we study the processes that determine whether mammalian cells live or die. Our lab is...
Stanley J. Korsmeyer Professor of Cell Biology and Medicine
The overall theme of our lab is the regulation of energy homeostasis in mammalian systems, with special reference to adipose and muscle tissues. While we...
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...
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...
Apoptosis is a prevalent and important cell fate during development and homeostasis of multicellular organisms. The long-term goal of our research is to...
Our lab studies signals that regulate the specification and maintenance of cell differentiation during early embryogenesis, tissue regeneration, and...
