I am using optogenetics to study how macrophages remember and integrate phagocytic signals.
My research focus is on developmental genetics, trans-differentiation, and aging in nematode C. elegans.
I'm interested in how cells use quality control pathways to maintain organelles such as the peroxisome.
My research leverages the simple neural circuitry and complete connectome of Ciona to develop a simple model of how ve

Erica's research aims at gaining a better understanding of toxic tau species and how their propagation relates to Alzheimer's disease pro
Interested in using proteomic approaches to study virus-host interactions.
Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) expressed on macrophages promotes phagocytosis of cancer cells.
Contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) is a mechanism by which non-isogenic strains of Gram-negative bacteria compete with one another
