Profiles in "Gene Regulation" Expertise Area

  • Alan Rawls is the Executive Director of Clinical Partnerships in the Office of the University Provost and Associate Professor of Genomics, Evolution and Bioinformatics in the School of Life Sciences.
  • Lewis is interested in how salient life experiences, such as trauma and psychedelic-therapy, can alter epigenetic regulation of gene systems involved in mental health. She’s interested in the utility of peripheral samples to study brain health.
  • Dr. Mastroeni's current research is examining genetic ( Mom & Dad) and epigenetic (environmental) changes within single classes of cells in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease by laser capture microdissection (LCM).
  • Shepherd directs the Quantitative Imaging and Inference lab (qi2lab). qi2lab seeks to understand how the laws of physics interact with the rules of life using computational imaging and quantitative analysis tools.
  • Komal Singh's research interest focus is to improve cancer treatment-related outcomes by evaluating phenotypic and molecular risk factors for symptom occurrence and severity and determines underlying biological mechanisms.
