Najafov Lab

The mission of the Najafov Lab is to understand the role of cell death in physiology and disease. Our research is focused on necroptosis and how it can be targeted to develop novel strategies for treating cancer.

  • Ayaz Najafov, Ph.D.

Nam Lab

The Nam lab asks how the shape of an RNA regulates its function. We study the biochemical and structural mechanisms in RNA-mediated gene regulation pathways important for normal and disease states.

  • Yunsun Nam, Ph.D.

Nanes Lab

The Nanes Lab investigates how the keratin intermediate filament cytoskeleton organizes cell regulatory circuits during skin development, wound healing, and cancer.

  • Benjamin Nanes, M.D., Ph.D.

Napierala Lab

The mission of Napierala Lab is to contribute to the development of therapies and a cure for Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) by elucidating molecular mechanisms causing the disease, developing novel cellular and animal models of FRDA, identifying disease biomarkers and testing novel therapeutic approaches.

  • Marek Napierala, Ph.D.
Neuroscience

Nesbitt Lab

Shawna D. (Smith) Nesbitt, M.D., M.S., studies hypertension in African-Americans, insulin resistance, and hyperlipidemia. 

  • Shawna D. Nesbitt, M.D., M.S.,

Neuromuscular Diseases Laboratory

The focus of the Neuromuscular Center is the diagnosis and treatment of muscle diseases known as metabolic myopathies, including inherited disorders of muscle fat, carbohydrate, and mitochondrial muscle metabolism.

  • Ronald G. Haller, M.D.
  • Salman Bhai, M.D.

Neurorepair Lab

The Neurorepair Lab focuses on the investigation of mechanisms of injury and recovery following damage to the central nervous system (CNS), primarily following stroke and perinatal hypoxia. 

  • Mark P. Goldberg, M.D.

Ni Lab

We study bacterial colonization of the intestinal tract, to understand how both benign and pathological bacteria affect their environment. Our long-term goal is to treat intestinal diseases by genetically engineering bacteria in vivo.

  • Josephine Ni, M.D.
Molecular Microbiology

Nicastro Lab

The Nicastro Lab studies 3D ultra-structures and cell biological functions of macro-molecular complexes inside cells.

Nijhawan (Ank) Lab

The Ank Nijhawan research team is focused on improving outcomes for people living with or at risk for HIV, and ensuring their access to comprehensive healthcare and social support services. We also focus on individuals involved in the criminal legal system, and specifically the overlap of infectious diseases such as HIV, hepatitis, sexually transmitted infections and substance use.

Nomellini Lab

Research conducted by the Nomellini Lab utilizes animal models as well as human samples to examine the interaction between the innate and adaptive immune responses that occur after injury or infection, and the heterogeneity of the immune responses that occur in each individual. Led by Vanessa Nomellini, M.D., Ph.D., our lab ultimately aims to develop personalized immune therapies to reverse the immunosuppression that can occur in ICU survivors.
