In the Izumi Lab, with the ultimate goal of identifying druggable molecules/pathways in pediatric genetic disorders, we investigate the molecular mechanisms of pediatric genetic disorders due to chromosomal abnormalities and chromatin protein mutations. We employ novel genetic approaches by using patient-derived samples, induced pluripotent stem cell models and mutant mouse models.
We focus on
The Jain Lab is broadly interested in sex disparities in research on women's health, as well as the impact of sex hormones on airway diseases and immune response.
The Jamieson Lab lab is shipping AI solutions safely!
We are a group of physicists, biophysicists, cell biologists, and “computationalists” interested in the spatiotemporal organization of cell surface receptors, the mechanisms underlying it, and its consequences for cell signaling. We utilize light microscopy, particularly single-molecule and super-resolution imaging, to monitor molecular behavior in its native cellular environment, and we develop computer vision and machine learning approaches to quantitate the observed behavior and gain insight beyond what the eye can see.
Dr. Robin Jarrett’s Psychosocial Research and Depression Clinic aims to understand how psychosocial factors influence health in mood and related disorders.
The Jewell Lab investigates how organisms sense environmental nutrient fluctuations and respond appropriately, fine tuning anabolic and catabolic processes to control cell growth, metabolism, and autophagy.
The Jiang lab studies fundamental mechanisms governing how diverse cell types are generated from naive progenitor cells and how cells of different types are put together to form appropriate body structures such as limbs during embryonic development. The lab also studies how damaged cells are replenished by stem cells during tissue repair and organ regeneration in adult life. We are particularly interested in understanding how cells communicate with one another to influence their growth and fate determination and how miscommunication among different cells leads to developmental abnormality and cancer progression.
The Jiang Lab studies ion channels.
Our lab seeks to uncover the structure-function relationship of macromolecules involved in protein misfolding — a key element of Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases.
The research in the Johnson lab is focused on vertebrate nervous system development during the transition from proliferating neural stem cells to differentiating neurons and glia.
We have two major areas of research: respiratory viruses and newly emerging pathogens.
The primary research focus of the Karner lab is to create and utilize novel mouse genetic models to study the role of cellular metabolism during skeletal development and disease.
Kim (Jaehyup) lab studies the mechanism of immune regulatory receptor regulation with a special focus on ligand identification and modulation.
The James Kim Lab examines the communication between epithelia and stroma through the lens of fundamental developmental pathways such as Hedgehog, Wnt, and Notch pathways.
Kitamura Lab's research aims to provide a biophysically-based mechanistic understanding of the neural process for learning and memory in the mouse brain.
The ultimate goal of the Kittler Lab's research is to develop novel therapeutic approaches that target transcription factors, which play important roles in common solid tumors (brain, breast, lung and prostate cancer) and could therefore have translational potential.
We are investigating how protein homeostasis (the maturation and turnover of enzymes) interacts with lipid homeostasis.
We are broadly interested in understanding how resident intestinal microorganisms (particularly bacteria and fungi and collectively referred to as the gut microbiome) influence the health of human cancer and stem cell transplant patients.
The Kohler research group is committed to developing and implementing new tools optimized for the study of glycosylated molecules.
Kong lab aims to harness the cutting-edge technologies in human genetics and genomics, immunology, and molecular biology to better understand the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal inflammation.
We are taking a comparative genomics approach to identify genes that have been modified in the human brain.
Our research focuses on two main areas: hyperpolarized 13C, 15N, 89Y and 107, 109Ag compounds, and conventional lanthanide-based T1 shortening and paraCEST imaging agents.
The goal of the Krämer laboratory is to understand the molecular mechanisms that regulate responses to diverse cellular stresses.
The Kraus Lab is interested in the basic mechanisms of nuclear signaling and gene regulation by small molecules and how these signaling pathways relate to human physiology and disease states.
