1. Sam Kunes, PhD

   Genetic and Biochemical Studies of Memory

   Prof. Kunes’ laboratory investigates the molecular and cellular bases of memory, focusing on novel biochemical mechanisms of synaptic plasticity and localizing their activities in the brain. ...

   

2. Norbert Perrimon, PhD

   Modeling developmental processes and signaling pathways in Drosophila

   Use Drosophila as a model organism to explore basic biological mechanisms of development and cellular signaling, with a focus on muscle physiology.

   

3. David Van Vactor, Jr, PhD

   Cell biology of neuronal connectivity: axon guidance; synapse; signaling mechanisms

   Studies on axon guidance and synapse formation in metazoans such as Drosophila that are in many cases directly relevant to mammalian cells.
