Schellenberg Lab
Genetics of Neurodegenerative Diseases
Principal Investigator: Gerard D. Schellenberg, PhD
Moore Lab
Contribution of failure of normal growth regulatory controls to the development of hematologic malignancies; development of new flow cytometric applications for research and clinical use. This includes basic and translational studies on applications for monitoring receptor/ligand binding, multiparameter functional studies, minimal residual disease detection, stem cell isolation and identification, and transplantation monitoring.
Principal Investigator: Jonni S. Moore, PhD
Lambris Lab
The Lambris Lab consists of an international and interdisciplinary team that investigates the various aspects of innate immunity, and particularly the complement system, in health and disease. The integrated research approach encompasses projects such as the quantitative analysis of protein-protein interactions of complement components, the development of therapeutic complement inhibitors (e.g. Compstatin), complement evasion by human pathogens, and the role of complement in liver regeneration and cancer development.
