Studies the genetics of degenerative muscle diseases using mouse models for SMA, ALS, muscular dystrophy and more.
Researches the genetics of aging and lifespan, seeking to understand the basic mechanisms of aging, and adult stem cells, with the goal of delaying normal aging processes.
Researches the molecules and pathways important to the development and physiology of the ear, with a focus on hearing loss and impairment.
Investigates the genetic regulation of meiosis and the mechanisms of male fertility to understand how errors in meiosis can lead to developmental abnormalities.
Conducts research to understand why the immune system causes autoimmune diseases and to devise methods to predict and treat them.
Researches functional and comparative genome informatics, developing systems to integrate and analyze genetic, genomic and phenotypic data.
Develops and enhances the Mouse Genome Informatics database (MGI), an integrated database of mouse genetic, genomic and biological data used throughout the international scientific community.
