The Ashrafi lab uses genetic, biochemical, and quantitative optical imaging techniques to study metabolic regulation of neurotransmission.

Major Lab

The Blumer lab currently studies signal transduction mechanisms that cause uveal melanoma, a highly aggressive and deadly cancer, with the ultimate goal of discovering avenues leading to effective therapy for this currently untreatable cancer.

The Chen lab utilizes multi-omic and high-throughput screening approaches to systematically investigate the regulation and function of circRNA in cells and develop novel circRNA technologies for translational applications.

The Crewe lab uses transgenic mouse lines, cell culture and biochemistry to understand extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated signaling during homeostatic and pathologic metabolic regulation.

Inter-organellar interactions between midbody, centrosome, and primary cilium in health and disease.

The Djuranovic Lab uses different biochemical, molecular biology and genetics techniques to investigate the process of gene expression regulation at the level of mRNA translation.

The Goldfarb Lab is focused on computational mass spectrometry and proteomics with the goal of achieving comprehensive protein identification and quantification in complex biological samples.
