Josefina del Marmol (She/ Her/ Hers)

Assistant Professor
Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School

Our lab studies the molecular mechanisms of sensory transduction, seeking to understand how animals detect the physical and chemical cues from their environment and transform them into cellular signals. In particular, we focus on the sense of smell in insect vectors of disease.
