"The intrinsically disordered domain promotes the chromatin interaction of the argonaute protein HRDE-1 at both RNAi target and actively transcribed genes."
“REALIZING MICROGLIA REPLACEMENT FOR NEUROLOGICAL DISEASE” Microglia are the tissue resident macrophages of the brain and spinal cord. They are sentinels of brain health and immunological effectors. They are also readily replaceable. We will discuss the identity and function of microglia in pediatric brain diseases and approaches to replace them for therapeutic benefit.
"Synthetic biology for illuminating cellular responses in space and the gut" Cells adapt to environmental stressors through chemistry, producing and responding to small molecules that mediate survival, defense, and communication. My lab integrates enzymology, natural products, and synthetic biology to uncover and reprogram these chemical responses across diverse systems. My talk will begin with our […]
