Microtubule-Based Motility
My group studies the molecular motors that power the movement of membranes and chromosomes inside of cells as well as the role of the cytoskeleton in cell division and cell shape. The lab also studies proteins that regulate the microtubule cytoskeleton and the biochemistry of T cell receptor signaling.
