MCDB Spotlights

A cross-disciplinary foundation in biological science, while allowing students the flexibility to choose their own path of inquiry.
Although the Graduate Division ceremony has been canceled, we look forward to celebrating in person with these accomplished scientists in the future. Congratulations and best wishes to all.
We use light-switchable molecules to control and engineer natural cell behaviors.
We are interested in a simple question: how does a cell build a peroxisome? I use genetic and microscopy tools to answer questions about protein quality control mechanisms within the cell.
