Developmental control of cell cycle progression
The research in my lab was focused on molecular mechanisms controlling cell divisions. We have worked primarily with the fly Drosophila melanogaster, addressing cell biological and developmental issues: inheritance of the genetic information (chromosomes) to daughter cells during meiotic and mitotic divisions; developmental control of rate-limiting cell cycle regulators (cyclins, CDK inhibitors).
