The work in our lab is focused on the DNA damage response (DDR), a network of functions comprising DNA damage signaling, DNA repair, and DNA damage dependent cell cycle regulation.  With an overarching interest in chromosome biology, the laboratory employs yeast and mice to undertake genetic, molecular biological, and biochemical analyses of these pathways with a goal of understanding the DDR’s role in tissue homeostasis, development, and tumor suppression.  Experience in these research areas is preferred, as are candidates interested in multi-disciplinary approaches
