Faculty research interests in the Department of Cell Biology cover a broad spectrum of cell, developmental and neurobiology ranging from subcellular organization to integration of sensory stimuli to mechanisms of human disease and therapeutic strategies. These problems are approached using a wide range of model systems, Drosophila, mice and human iPSC derived organoids. For further information on our research, teaching and activities, we encourage you to visit this departmental website, as well as individual faculty lab websites found in the link to each faculty member.
Faculty in the Department of Cell Biology conduct research programs which focus on three major, but interrelated themes:
