| Jonathan Epstein | Transcriptional regulation of cardiac development and function using mouse models |
| Shannon Fisher | Skeletal development in the vertebrate embryo; transcriptional regulation and genome evolution |
| Daniel Kessler | * Establishment and organization of the primary germ layers * Formation and function of the Spemann organizer in axial development * Signaling and transcriptional networks in the vertebrate gastrula |
| Peter Klein | Early vertebrate development and pattern formation, Wnt signaling, chromatin and epigenetic regulation of early development, hematopoietic stem cell biology, neuropharmacology of bipolar disorder, lithium and glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) |
| Randolph Matthews | Hepatobiliary development and disease modeling, using the zebrafish |
| Sarah Millar | Development of hair follicles, mammary glands, taste papillae and teeth; regeneration and neogenesis of hair follicles and teeth; hair follicle, mammary gland and dental stem cells; skin and mammary gland tumorigenesis; microRNA functions in embryonic and postnatal skin and mammary glands; functions of histone deacetylases in skin and hair follicle development and renewal |
| Edward Morrisey | Lung development, cardiac development, vascular development, Wnt signaling, regulation of gene transcription, GATA factors, forkhead factors |
| Mary Mullins | BMP signal transduction; molecular mechanisms of cell specification and maternal control in vertebrates |
| Michael Pack | Research interests: Research in my laboratory is geared towards studying medically relevant aspects of digestive organ development |
| Jonathan Raper | Developmental neurobiology, especially axon guidance |
| Richard Schultz | Egg activation and gene expression in mouse embryos |
| Patrick Seale | Stem Cells, Embryonic development, Adipocyte progenitors, Brown adipose tissue, White adipose tissue, PRDM16, PPARgamma |
| Nancy Speck | Hematopoietic stem cells and leukemia using mouse models |
| Eric Weinberg | Our lab has been involved in a set of projects on the control of pattern formation and tissue differentiation in the zebrafish embryo, focusing mainly on axis formation and the development of the nervous system. Recently I have become interested in the evolution of mobile elements and am studying a group of retrotransposons in the zebrafish genome |
