Faculty Directory

Our Faculty has grown to over 100 exceptional researchers focused in a variety of research specialties
faculty
Research interests include genetic network mapping in yeast and human cells, using systems biology approaches that include single cell image analysis.
faculty
We develop computational methods and an ecosystem theory of tissue function to help understand development, cancer and regenerative wound healing.
faculty
We study the regulation, function and evolution of RNA networks with critical roles in development and disease.
faculty
Developing and applying functional genomics approaches for mapping genetic, chemical-genetic, and protein-protein interactions using a yeast model system
faculty
We study how small RNA pathways related to microRNAs and RNA interference regulate gene expression during animal development.
faculty
We are interested in RNA and mitochondria, especially a naturally-occurring Neurospora mitochondrial plasmid that encodes a catalytic RNA called the VS ribozyme.
faculty
Research in the Cowen lab focuses on the biology and evolution of fungal pathogens
olguin
We investigate the epigenetic mechanisms controlling development of the cardiovascular system, and how they are disrupted to cause disease.
faculty
Mechanisms of cell fate specification, epigenetic inheritance, paediatric diseases models such as cerebral cavernous malformation and neuroblastoma.
faculty
We study how cells maintain the integrity genome and how this process is dysregulated in cancer, aging and genetic disorders.
faculty
I am interested in studying the human proteins that have the fewest publications, because that is where I believe the most new biology can be found.
faculty
My lab identifies and studies novel functions of Epstein-Barr virus proteins in manipulating cellular processes to promote cell survival and infection.
faculty
The Fraser Lab uses systematic approaches in C. elegans to probe basic problems in genetics
gillis
Our group studies cell identity by integrating diverse functional genomics data, particularly focusing on gene co-expression.
faculty
We are a signal transduction, systems biology and proteomics lab focusing on signalling pathways and cellular organization
faculty
RNA interactions and regulatory roles of human C2H2 zinc finger proteins; human proteins that become essential after viral infection as drug targets
faculty
We employ technologies to identify, study and map properties and relationships among individual functional units in the genome.
faculty
How stem cells build and maintain the brain and discovering drugs and growth factors that mobilize these cells to repair the injured brain and skin.
faculty
We use modern computational and experimental approaches to solve important problems in biomedical science such as designing protein and peptide-based therapeutics
faculty
Our lab is using live animal (Drosophila and zebrafish) and genome-scale approaches to understand biological processes.
faculty
Role of RNA-binding proteins in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in development and disease.
faculty
We study regulatory functions of the non-coding genome by focusing on lncRNAs, inter-chromosomal contacts, and genome organization.
faculty
We develop and apply genome-scale perturbation technologies to explore genotype-phenotype relationships in human and mouse cells for target discovery.
Faculty Rafael MB
Our research focuses on mapping metabolic rewiring using mass spectrometry to understand the functions of metabolites in diseases such as cancer.

faculty
The Schramek lab leverages functional genomics to study cancer development and to develop novel precision cancer therapies.
faculty
We use zebrafish and single cell genomics to define and examine conserved genes and enhancers that regulate heart development and disease.
faculty
We study how RNA-binding proteins and non-coding RNAs regulate gene expression in Drosophila embryos and human neurons.
