Research Interests
Individual cells within genetically homogenous populations can respond differently to inductive signals or cues and adopt distinct fates. We combine novel experimental, computational, and theoretical frameworks to monitor, perturb, model, and ultimately control single-cell variabilities and emergent fate choices in development and disease, including cancer and developmental disorders. Our lab's interdisciplinary research program welcomes artists, biologists, chemists, clinicians, computer scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and physicists to work together and provide unique insights into biological systems.
