Dauer Lab

The central goal of the Dauer Lab is to unravel the molecular and cellular mechanisms of diseases that disrupt the motor system. In exploring these diseases, we also aim to understand a fundamental question relevant to CNS disease generally: what factors determine the selective vulnerability of particular cell types or circuits to insults? Our primary focus is on Parkinson’s disease and inherited forms of dystonia. We focus our efforts on disease genes that cause these disorders, employing a range of molecular, cellular, and whole animal studies to dissect the normal role of disease proteins, and how pathogenic mutations lead to disease.

Dean Lab

The Dean Lab aims to develop and apply cutting-edge microscopy instrumentation and analyses to gain insight into otherwise intractable biological problems.

  • Kevin M. Dean, Ph.D.

DeBerardinis Lab

Proper control of metabolism is required for essentially every basic biological process. Altered metabolism at the cellular level contributes to several serious diseases including inborn errors of metabolism (the result of inherited genetic defects in metabolic enzymes that lead to chemical imbalances in children) and cancer. Our laboratory seeks to characterize these metabolic disorders, understand how they compromise tissue function, develop methods to monitor metabolism in vivo and design therapies to restore normal metabolism and improve health.

  • Ralph DeBerardinis, M.D., Ph.D.

DeBose-Boyd Lab

The HMG CoA reductase regulatory system researched by DeBose-Boyd Lab involves a complex, multivalent feedback mechanism that is mediated by sterol and nonsterol end-products of mevalonate metabolism.
