The Adelman lab studies the changes in gene regulation and epigenetics that drive development and stress-responses.
Cell-type and condition-specific patterns of gene expression are established through a sophisticated network of interactions between...
The goal of the Devlin lab is to understand and control the chemistry of human-associated bacteria (i.e., the microbiome) in order to uncover how these bacterial guests affect the human host.
We are not alone. The human body harbors more bacterial cells...
Our proteome is shaped by transcription/translation, as much as by protein degradation. The latter, sometimes even leading to...
My research interests lie at the interface of information science, molecular engineering, and biology. We are interested in engineering digitally...
Metabolic pathways provide essential energy and building blocks for the function of all...
We study receptor-ligand interactions and transmembrane signal transmission that are relevant to immunology, hemostasis, and human disease using structural, cell biological, and single molecule techniques.
We work on receptor-ligand interactions and...
The Silver Lab seeks to enhance our understanding of natural biological design, and to develop tools and concepts for designing cells, tissues and organisms.
What can we build with biology? We use a synthetic biology approach to understanding biological...
The overall goal of our work is to solve biological problems using quantitative methods from bioinformatics, statistical physics, data sciences, statistics, computer science, and mathematics. We apply these computational methods to build predictive...
The Prentiss group focuses on using physics tools to elucidate important problems in biology. The basic principles governing self-assembly have been a focus of recent work.
It has long been known that any complex self-assembling system faces a...
Our laboratory is interested in how cell cycle signals regulate chromosome segregation and polarized morphogenesis. Our experimental approaches include a combination of biochemical, genetic and live-cell imaging.
My group studies cell division and...
