Profiles in "Genomics" Expertise Area

  • Guo's research focuses on the development of single cell genomics and proteomics technologies with novel fluorescent probes, used to explore complex diseases.
  • Peter studies the genetic etiologies of disorders of spoken and written language. Her work contributes to the foundations for early identification of children at genetic risk and for proactive interventions.
  • Wilson is a computational evolutionary biologist studying sex-biased processes including human and non-human health and disease.
  • Maley is a biologist who specializes in cancer, evolution and computational biology. He works at the intersection of these fields.
  • Vermaas and his team conduct basic and applied research on cyanobacteria, a group of photosynthetic microbes, using these organisms as a chassis to produce useful compounds (biofuels, green chemicals) from sunlight and CO2.
  • Phil Hedrick is a population geneticist and conservation biologist who studies genetic variation in populations, including how genetics can impact the survival of rare and endangered species.
  • Wilson-Rawls' research focuses on understanding the regulation of cell fate during development and regeneration with an emphasis on skeletal muscle stem cells and gametogenesis.
  • Martin Wojciechowski is an evolutionary biologist who studies plants, with an emphasis on the genomics, biogeography, ecology, and phylogenetics of legumes (family Leguminosae) and cacti (family Cactaceae).
  • Gadau is a behavioral ecologist and evolutionary biologist who focuses on understanding the genetic and genomic basis of speciation and species differences.
  • Liebig studies the organization, chemical communication, reproductive regulation, and behavioral and physiological plasticity of ants and termites with a focus on the colony, the individual, and the olfactory system.
