Research Interests: Understanding embryonic development and oncogenesis at the molecular level, including biochemical events within the Hedgehog pathway. Chemical approaches to the study of embryonic patterning.


Karlene Cimprich, Ph.D. Karlene Cimprich, Ph.D.
Additional Info: Cimprich Lab
Research Interests: The use of genetic, biochemical and chemical approaches to understand the DNA damage-induced cell cycle checkpoints and the processes that contribute to maintenance of genomic stability.


Joshua Elias Ph.D.
Additional Info: Josh Elias
Research Interests: Developing new mass spectrometry-based experimental and computational tools that advance the field of proteomics, and applying them to a variety of important biomedical paradigms, including cancer, aging, and stem cell biology.
James E. Ferrell, Jr., M.D. Ph.D. James E. Ferrell, Jr., M.D. Ph.D.
Additional Info: Ferrell Lab
Research Interests: Cell cycle regulation and systems biology.




Tobias Meyer, Ph.D. Tobias Meyer, Ph.D.
Additional Info: Meyer Lab
Research Interests: Understanding the fundamental principles of signal transduction networks that regulate synaptic plasticity, secretion, and chemotaxis.


mochly-rosen Daria Mochly-Rosen, Ph.D.
Additional Info: Mochly-Rosen Lab
Research Interests: Mechanisms underlying the specificity of protein kinase C isozymes in normal heart function and in cancer; role of protein-protein interaction in signal transduction.


Mary Teruel, Ph.D.
Additional Info: Teruel Lab
Research Interests: Understanding how the PI3K-insulin signaling network controls fat cell function using high-throughput screening, targeted mass spectrometry, bioinformatics, and live-cell imaging.



Thomas J. Wandless, Ph.D. Thomas J. Wandless, Ph.D.
Additional Info: Wandless Lab
Research Interests: Understanding and controling biological processes using synthetic organic chemistry, biochemistry, structural and cell biology.



wysocka Joanna Wysocka, Ph.D.
Research Interests: Epigenetic regulation of differentiation and development. We study the mechanistic basis by which histone modifications regulate gene expression by combining biochemical and genetic approaches in mammalian cells, including mouse and human embryonic stem cells, with developmental studies in Xenopus laevis.
