We study how disseminated cancer cells survive and give rise to overt metastatic lesions.

Dr. Song's laboratory focuses on understanding the mechanisms of cell death, including apoptosis, ferroptosis, pH-dependent cell death, and immunogenic cell death.

The Wang lab applies single-molecule fluorescence biophysical, quantitative biochemical, structural, and genetics approaches to unravel the intricate relationships between structure, dynamics and function in complex dynamic biological systems. Our primary goal is to understand the dynamic mechanisms of cytosolic and mitochondrial protein synthesis and how they are dysregulated in human diseases.

Our lab is studying novel regulatory mechanisms that control innate immunity in intestinal health and disease.

The Ding lab is led by Dr. Kan Ding, an Associate Professor and practicing neurologist who specializes in epilepsy. The lab concentrates on neurocritical care and post-traumatic epilepsy, with the goal of advancing strategies for diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation to improve care for those with epilepsy. 

At the Fu Lab of human neuroscience we investigate the neural bases of cognitive control.

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

The Beckham lab is a dynamic multidisciplinary laboratory that studies viral pathogenesis and neuroimmune responses.

A major focus of the Patwardhan lab is translational research into mechanisms of pain and potential treatment.

We are interested in taking bioinformatics and data integration approaches to gain insights into cancer metabolism, inborn errors of metabolism, and lung neoplasm.

Sakano Lab investigates FMRP's influence on auditory brainstem development in Fragile X Syndrome. Using a mouse model, we examine gene expression and its potential link to autism, auditory processing, hyperacusis, and tinnitus.

The Ranjan Lab’s mission is to develop and translate novel immunotherapies, with a particular focus on addressing malignant cancers in humans and animals.

We are broadly interested in how energy is regulated on a systems level during infection. Our current projects are focused on understanding the role that adipose tissue plays in the response to influenza and SARS-CoV2.

We seek to understand how RNA/protein assemblies control cellular states, and how related pathways are hijacked by diseases of aging.

Interventional psychiatry is treatment that combines brain stimulation with medication for difficult-to-treat mental health disorders. At UT Southwestern Medical Center, our psychiatrists have advanced training and expertise in caring for people with treatment-resistant mental health disorders.

We specialize in the latest advances in brain stimulation to bring relief to people who haven’t had success with traditional treatments.

Please contact our team if planning neoadjuvant Adriamycin (doxorubicin), for enrollment in the HP Cardiotox Study.

Research lab led by PI Faith (Yuanyuan) Zhang, M.D., Ph.D.

While cardiac and thoracic surgeries are often life-saving and may invoke life-changing improvements in health related quality of life, many patients also experience varying degrees of end organ injury and associated complications that can persist in the years following surgery. In 2014 Amanda Fox, M.D., M.P.H. initiated a genomics, biomarkers and outcomes research group at UTSW. This group values multi-specialty collaborations between anesthesiologists, surgeons cardiologists, radiologists, critical care physicians, biostatisticians, geneticists, bench scientists, and many other specialties.

The Luo lab studies hypoxia stress in human cancers with a focus on epigenetic and metabolic alterations. 

The Stopschinski lab investigates molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s Disease and other tauopathies with the goal to find new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for these conditions.
