The Davenport Lab is a branch of the ANSIR Lab at UTSW that focuses on quantitative methods for human brain imaging, primarily using MRI and Magnetoencephalography (MEG).

The Gill lab studies the molecular and metabolic pathways that influence melanoma progression and metastasis.

Heart-Brain Connection Program

The Sguigna lab investigates the visual system in multiple sclerosis, and other neurological conditions, with the intent of leveraging technologies to further science both diagnostically and therapeutically. 

The Nair-Gill Lab dissects the cellular infrastructure that dictates immune cell survival and fate decisions.

How do cells sense metabolites to drive their growth and proliferation?  We seek to study metabolites not only as nutrients but as cellular instruction signals that dictate cell biology. 

Dr. LoBue's BRAIN lab, short for Brain Aging, Injury, and Modulation Lab, has two lines of research in the area of aging and neurodegenerative diseases. The lab investigates the later-in-life effects of traumatic brain injury, which involves understanding the potential risk associated with developing dementia and the underlying biological pathways. The lab also studies the effects of noninvasive brain stimulation in Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders with the goal of informing the development of new treatments.

This is a sample of a multi-page site Lab with suggested layouts and image size recommendations.

The Yang Lab aims to overcome clinical unmet needs and help patients by developing and validating advanced radionuclide imaging technologies for positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging. Deep learning is an important engine for overcoming the current limitations (low spatial resolution, slow data acquisition, etc.) of PET and SPECT imaging. . 

The overarching goals of our lab are to understand the posttranscriptional mechanisms of gene expression and regulation in the Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and its human host cell. We are particularly focused on the mechanisms and regulation of nuclear RNA stability, polyadenylation, and mRNA processing by viral and by host cell factors.

The Cotter Research Group is a clinical lab focused on strategies to improve outcomes for patients with liver diseases with a particular focus on alcohol and metabolic dysfunction-associated liver diseases.

The Yue lab focuses on developing translational immunology platforms to uncover the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying immunotherapy resistance and to design next-generation cancer immunotherapies.

Research in the Rothermel Laboratory focuses on deciphering the molecular mechanisms that control cardiac structure and function during normal development and in response to pathological stress.

Multidisciplinary research to beat cancer

The Concussion, Acquired Brain Injury, and Neurodegeneration (CABIN) Laboratory, led by Kristin Wilmoth, Ph.D., investigates best practices for assessment and treatment of concussion and more severe traumatic brain injury, other acquired brain injuries such as stroke, and neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease.

In the Izumi Lab, with the ultimate goal of identifying druggable molecules/pathways in pediatric genetic disorders, we investigate the molecular mechanisms of pediatric genetic disorders due to chromosomal abnormalities and chromatin protein mutations. We employ novel genetic approaches by using patient-derived samples, induced pluripotent stem cell models and mutant mouse models.
