Genetics Research

Genetics and Physiology research

The most exciting recent work in genetics is led by Connor Shrader in collaboration with the Gagnon lab, using modern CRISPR marking techniques and extensions of classic methods from population genetics to track the dynamics of the stem cells that make sperm in zebrafish.

In addition to cell biology, our work has looked at how plants move water, and how cells find their way during development. See selected physiology papers here
