Dean of the Faculty of Medicine Caroline Shields Walker Professor of Medicine
Our lab focuses on stem cell biology, with an emphasis on somatic cell reprogramming, hematopoietic differentiation from human and mouse pluripotent stem...
My group is broadly interested in the evolution of transcriptional networks in animals. Whole genome sequence for a wide variety of organisms has shown us...
The step-by-step differentiation of embryonic cells into different types of neurons lays the foundation for our sensory responses, motor commands, and...
Our broad interest is to understand how cell-cell signaling molecules set up spatial pattern, particularly in the formation of neuronal connections. We...
Assistant Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology
Cells of the immune system defend us against a variety of insults, including infection by pathogens. However, it is now clear that immune cells also have... Read more about Ruth A. Franklin
Research in our laboratory is committed to expanding our molecular understanding of the formation and regeneration of tendons and ligaments. Injuries to...
Our laboratory is using cellular, molecular, bioengineering, and computational biology tools to understand how mechanical forces generated by the flow of...
Our laboratory seeks to understand the signals that indicate organ injury and regulate growth and regeneration. The inability to recover from acute injury can... Read more about Wolfram Goessling
Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
RNA biogenesis and decay mechanisms in stem cells and diseaseOur goal is to understand molecular and cellular mechanisms controlling RNA biogenesis and decay... Read more about Richard I. Gregory
The brain, which represents 2% of the body mass but consumes 20% of the body energy at rest, is therefore highly dependent on oxygen and nutrients supply...
The laboratory studies muscle stem cells in human and mouse tissues, with the goal of developing strategies that will slow the progression of and improve... Read more about Emanuela Gussoni
The focus of this laboratory is to understand the genetic basis of development of form – that is shape, size and proportion during vertebrate development...
