| Medical genetics and genomics and cancer biology research |
 | As a trained, American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM) board certified veterinarian, Dr. Erin Daugherity has a strong interest in animal models of disease, the humane use of animals used in teaching and research, and applying the 3 R’s (reduce, refine, replace) to the use of animals in research. |
| Molecular biotechnology; protein biogenesis and folding pathways; protein engineering - lab |
| Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition as a driver of resistance to anti-tumor immunity - lab |
 | hereditary diseases in dogs to identify genetic variants contributing to disease development - lab |
| Tissue-engineered model systems for analysis of microenvironmental conditions fundamental to cancer pathogenesis and therapy - lab |
 | My research interests include creating systems to evaluate and improve the welfare of research animals, and the development and refinement of animal models of human disease |
 | (a) Immunology of nanomaterials and implantable materials and (b) safe and targeted delivery of mRNAs and DNAs for cancer immunotherapies/vaccines and neurological diseases |
| Tissue morphogenesis; cell shape and architecture; organ development; gut morphogenesis; mammary gland biology; breast cancer - lab |
| Cellular biomechanics; mechanotransduction; cell migration; muscular dystrophy and cancer cell biology - lab |
| The laboratory is currently focused on further advancing the novel 3D organ-on-chip systems, as well as developing both cellular and molecular tools and in vivo models, to better understand the mechanisms through which cells regulate their response to biological and mechanical cues - lab |
| Understanding innate immunity from the receptors that detect microbes to how innate immune cells react to changes in their environment during inflammatory processes - lab |
| Regulation of cell signaling by protein lipidation |
| Anatomic pathology; small and large animal neuropathology; CNS tumorigenesis; disease diagnostics; stem cell pathology - lab |
| Stem cells and cancer; pathogenesis of ovarian and prostate cancers; modeling of human disease in genetically modified mice and human organoids - lab |
| Cancer metabolism and therapeutic opportunities |
| membrane protein trafficking and quality control mechanisms - lab |
 | Role of cellular protein, lipids, and glycans play in viral infection |
 | Genetics of reproduction and germ cell development; cancer genetics; meiosis; DNA repair; genome manipulation in mice; functional genomics - lab |
| The Simmons lab focuses on the role that lipids play in the regulation of inflammatory and other immunological processes in the tumor microenvironment. Using 3-Dimensional bioprinting technology, we are developing novel patient-derived in vitro tumor models for testing various therapeutic approaches in non-small cell lung carcinoma. -lab |
| Functional genomics; gene regulation; molecular genetics; gastrointestinal physiology; stem cell biology; metabolic disease - lab |
| Signaling of cellular oxidative stress; molecular mechanisms used by cellular pathways that sense and signal redox imbalances within the cell |
| Cell signaling and genome maintenance; DNA replication stress; phosphproteomics |
| Basic cellular and molecular mechanisms implicated in cell fate choice and stem cell activity within tissues - lab |
| We use molecular biology, genetics and animal models to dissect how our metabolism gives rise to chemicals that damage our DNA- Wang Lab |
 | Molecular mechanisms for the maintenance of genomic stability; cellular responses to DNA damage; mouse models of human cancer - lab |
| Cancer biology; stem cell biology; biochemistry and cell biology - lab |
| Leukemia; cell growth and differentiation; oncogenes/genetics - lab |
 | The Yu group performs research in the broad areas of Network Systems Biology. We use integrated computational-experimental systems biology approaches to determine protein interactions and complex structures on the scale of the whole cell. In particular, we focus on protein-protein and gene regulatory networks and seek to understand how such intricate systems evolve and how their perturbations lead to human diseases, especially autism spectrum disorder and cancer. |
