The Peled lab focuses on cancer immunotherapy.
… Cancer immunotherapy hold tremendous promise, but durable responses in most disease types are achieved in only a minority of patients. For example, allogeneic hematopoietic-cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a curative treatment for hematological malignancies, but its success is limited by relapse, graft-vs-host

Physician-scientist Viviane Tabar focuses on stem cells as tools for brain repair and for modeling brain cancer.
… I am a neurosurgeon-scientist and Chair of the Department of Neurosurgery. I have clinical expertise in the surgical management of brain tumors such as complex gliomas, meningiomas, and skull base tumors. The lab is focused on two major themes: harnessing the potential of human pluripotent stem cells

The Kushal Dey lab focuses on developing machine learning models and computational pipelines that integrate genomic and epigenomic data.
… The Kushal Dey Lab builds statistical and machine learning models that integrate genetic and genomic data to prioritize variants, genes, and cell types, and to decode the causal functional architecture underlying heritable complex diseases — including immune-related diseases, like Alzheimer’s and inflammatory

The Pertsinidis laboratory uses single-molecule approaches to understand gene transcription and the function of complex macromolecular machines inside live cells.
… Our mission is the development of a “new” generation of optical imaging technologies to enable advances in two hitherto difficult-to-investigate areas: the real-time analysis of macromolecular interactions and motions at the nanometer scale in vivo and the three-dimensional architecture of complex molecular

The Tulpule lab studies how cells compartmentalize critical cellular processes with a focus on biomolecular condensates in cancer.
… The Tulpule Lab is interested in a long-standing question in cell biology: how do cells organize and compartmentalize critical cellular processes within the crowded and heterogeneous intracellular space? We focus on an emerging set of self-assembling, protein-based structures known as biomolecular condensates

Cancer biologist and pediatric oncologist Alex Kentsis leads research in the functional proteomics and molecular pharmacology of refractory childhood cancers.
… We study the biology of cancers that affect children and young adults ranging from embryonal tumors in infants, leukemias and brain tumors in children, and sarcomas in young adults. Scientists in our group use inter-disciplinary experimental tools as they work to understand the fundamental causes of

Optical engineer Milind Rajadhyaksha studies confocal microscopy for the imaging of cancer, technology development, and translational and clinical studies in skin and head and neck cancers.
… I am a mechanical and optical engineer and principal investigator in the Optical Imaging Laboratory in the Dermatology Service. My research focuses on creating novel confocal microscopes and endoscopes for imaging skin and head and neck cancers, and translating this technology to clinical applications

Molecular biologist Thomas Kelly studies regulatory mechanisms that control DNA replication during the cell cycle of eukaryotic cells.
… My long-term interest is to understand how the cellular genome is duplicated during the cell cycle. In the course of growth and division, eukaryotic cells duplicate their genomes with remarkable fidelity. The precision of this process depends in large measure upon stringent regulatory mechanisms that

The Antonsecu lab focuses on translocation-associated sarcoma pathogenesis and generating in vitro models.
… An on-going focus of our work is the genomic investigation of pediatric and young adult unclassified mesenchymal tumors, with a special emphasis on detecting novel gene fusions drivers. By applying highly efficient RNAseq and FusionSeq pipelines for novel translocation discovery in tumors that lack known
