The Stein Lab uses the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster as a model to study the mechanisms regulating embryonic and ovarian development, and to investigate the genetic networks that control growth and proliferation…
Processing and metabolism of RNA in eukaryotes.
Dr. Steven's laboratory is interested in the structure and function of ribonucleoproteins, in particular, the small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs)…
The recent discovery of RNA interference (RNAi) and small regulatory RNAs such as siRNAs and miRNAs, has dramatically changed our understanding of the regulation of gene expression. Consequently, RNAi has generated…
Aquatic biology with an emphasis on systematics and ecology of diatoms, especially diatom evolution in the context of environmental change. Research goals are 1) to understand evolution of protists (eukaryotic…

Cell division in bacteria.
One of our research interests is the mechanism of DNA replication in the bacterium Escherichia coli and the relation of replication to the cell division cycle. Most of the replication…
Molecular and cellular basis of embryonic morphogenesis: The process by which embryos acquire their final shape involves the coordination of cell fate decisions with cell movement. Those at the Wallingford Lab are…
