Dr. Nishiyama is currently focused on the following questions.
• How is axonal structural plasticity regulated in the adult brain during learning?
• How does axonal remodeling proceed in real time…
We applied experimental and computational approaches to investigate the factors contributing to the evolution of bacterial genomes and microbial communities.
Some on the projects that are currently underway in…
Natural Sciences: Biology
As a plant systematist, Dr. Panero is interested in the distribution, diversity, and evolution of flowering plants. His research focuses on the elucidation of phylogenetic relationships among Neotropical members of…
DNA repair and genomic stability
Paull's research is focused on the repair of DNA double-strand breaks in eukaryotic cells and the consequences of this repair on genomic stability and oncogenic…
Enteric pathogens and the expression of proteins associated with the acquisition of the essential element iron. Because there is little free iron in mammalian hosts, pathogenic bacteria must express high-affinity…
I'm interested in gene regulation, epigenetics, social behavior and behavioral neuroscience.
The Pierce lab seeks to identify genetic mechanisms that govern behaviors and contribute to genetic disorders, approaching this complex subject by studying conserved genes in the simple but powerful model…
