Human Genetics

The following GGR laboratories are interested in human genetics:

Maja Bucan
Genetic dissection of complex behaviors in mice; Functional genomics
Alice Chen-Plotkin I am interested in neurodegenerative diseases; my research approach uses genomic-scale screens to identify leads for downstream mechanistic follow-up in cell culture systems.
Vivian Cheung
Human Genetics, Genomics
Nancy Cooke
The role of chromatin structure in eukaryotic gene regulation.
Gideon Dreyfuss RNA-binding proteins, nuclear transport of proteins and mRNAs, RNA processing, neurodegenerative disease, high throughput approaches to drug discovery.
Brett Kaufman The role of mitochondrial chromatin organization in gene expression, resistance to damage, and genome transmission.
Nina Luning Prak
mobile DNA, rearrangement of immunoglobulin genes, regulation of L1 retrotransposition
J. Eric Russell
Control and function of human embryonic globin genes.
Eileen M. Shore
Genetic diseases of bone formation and development; Molecular and cell biology of bone formation and osteoblast differentiation; Transcriptional activation and regulation of bone morphogenetic protein and GNAS1 target genes.
Nancy Spinner Human Genetics, Notch signaling in human disease, Alagille syndrome, human disease gene identifcation by mapping deletions.
Sarah Tishkoff Human Genetics, complex disease, human evolution, infectious disease, malaria, evolutionary biology, natural selection, adaptation.

Other CAMB laboratories (with research related to GGR) interested in human genetics:

Daniel Rader
Genetic regulation of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism and molecular relationship to atherosclerosis.
Dwight Stambolian Gene discovery of complex and monogenic disorders.
