Labosky, Patricia A. Associate Professor The Labosky lab is interested in studying genes that control normal development of the mammalian embryo.
Lee, Ethan Assistant Professor My laboratory is interested in understanding the basic mechanisms by which a Wnt signal is propagated to coordinate the formation tissues, organs, and limbs and to understand how its misregulation can lead to disease states such as cancer in humans.
Lee, Laura Assistant Professor My laboratory uses a combination of biochemical and genetic approaches to study developmental regulation of the cell cycle in Drosophila melanogaster.
