Biography and Research Interest

The broad aims of our research program are to understand how developing vertebrate embryos are regionalized along the primary (anterior to posterior) body axis. Previous work from the lab has contributed to the understanding of Hox genes and hindbrain patterning, gene and genome duplications, endoderm regionalization, and pancreas development. Ongoing projects focus on: (1) collective cell migration of the developing pronephros (2) neural crest specification, regionalization and migration, and (3) comparative anterior lateral line development.
