Ascending somatosensory circuitry that shapes the perception of touch and pain. We study the development, function and dysfunction of ascending somatosensory pathways.

We investigate the neuro-hormonal basis for complex eating behaviors and blood glucose control, with the ultimate goal of designing new methods to prevent and treat extremes of body weight, blood glucose, and associated disorders of mood and metabolism.

We are interested in understanding at a cellular level the neural control of energy balance and glucose metabolism, and elucidating how these events may participate in human disease.

The over-arching theme of the Weaver Lab is to deeply understand how proteolytic factors mediate diverse physiological functions.

The Munshi Lab is a dedicated group of scientists seeking to identify the molecular drivers of normal cardiac rhythm and disease-associated dysrhythmias.

Our goal is to better understand the mechanisms that maintain adult tissues and how cancer cells hijack these mechanisms to enable the formation of tumors.

Our goal is to identify the metabolic mechanisms that push cells to become cancerous and find new ways to inhibit them.

Using novel multi-omics approaches and model systems to treat pancreatic cancer

The Ly Laboratory studies how cell cycle defects and mitotic errors shape the complex mutational landscape of human cancer genomes.

Our mission is to improve the lives of people living with skin and musculoskeletal diseases through rigorous science and compassion.
