GEMS Research Topics : DevelopmentAckerman, StevenPh.D., McGill University Research Interests Research Description Transcriptional mechanisms that regulate blood cell (granulocyte/eosinophil) lineage-specific development and gene expression during hematopoiesis. Cellular, molecular and immunobiology of the eosinophil granulocyte, focusing on pro-inflammatory effector functions in the pathogenesis of asthma and other allergic diseases such as eosinophilic esophagitis - mechanisms of eosinophil-mediated tissue damage, repair-remodeling and fibrosis are being investigated.
Diekwisch, ThomasDDS, Ph.D. (sci), Ph.D. (phil), Philipps-University of Marburg, West Germany Research Interests Research Description Developmental, molecular, and evolutionary biology of tooth enamel and periodontium
Katzen, AlisaPhD, University of California, San Francisco Research Interests Research Description Molecular and genetic analysis of the coordination of cell cycle regulation and differentiation during development; functional role of a proto-oncogene.
Lazarov, OrlyPh.D., Weizmann Institute of Science Research Interests Research Description Cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying Alzheimer's disease; Misregulation of neurogenic processes in the AD brain; Neurogenesis and stem cell-based therapeutic approaches.
Merrill, BradPh.D., University of California, San Diego Research Interests Research Description We examine how transcription factors determine cell fates, with a particular focus on effects on stem cells and during carcinogenesis.
