Professor Satish Nair of the Department of Biochemistry has been appointed Director of the Center for Biophysics and Quantitative Biology. Professor Nair has been serving as Interim Director since November 2015. Professor Martha Gillette of the Department of Cell and Developmental Biology has been...

Gillette, professor of cell and developmental biology, and colleagues will collaborate on various projects involving innovative single cell analysis in brain and the creation of biological machines in hopes of creating new diagnostic and therapeutic tools.

The Ceman laboratory, with lead authors Phil Kenny and Miri Kim, have shown that FMRP is able to facilitate or suppress the translation of a subset of its target mRNAs by its interaction with the RNA helicase MOV10.

A Team led by Martha Gillette, professor of Cell and Developmental Biology, Molecular and Integrative Physiology, Neuroscience and Bioengineering, has been awarded a BRAIN EAGER grant from NSF for a project titled “Multiscale dynamics and emergent properties of suprachiasmatic circuits in real time...

William T. Greenough, a professor emeritus of psychology, was a pioneer in studies of brain development, the neural basis of learning and memory, and the effects of aging, exercise, injury and environmental enrichment on the brain.

Although cellular metabolic (redox) state has long been associated with a housekeeping role, recent research from a team lead by Martha Gillette, and including the Lee Cox and Jonathan Sweedler groups, provides new insights on cellular redox states, linking them to the intrinsic daily (circadian)...

Professor of Molecular and Integrative Physiology and Neuroscience Rhanor Gillette and colleagues have published a paper in the Journal of Neurophysiology: "Nitric oxide potentiates cAMP-gated cation current by intracellular acidification in feeding neurons of Pleurobranchaea."

In this article, Associate Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology Stephanie Ceman discusses her research on Fragile X Syndrome.

Alumni Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology and Affiliate Professor of Molecular and Integrative Physiology Martha Gillette is featured in a new online video entitled "Neurosciences: The Clock." Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology Gene Robinson appears in a video entitled "...

Martha Gillette brings her biochemical understanding of how cells signal one another to examining the body's biological clock in rats. The clockwork, it turns out, drives not only circadian rhythms of sleep and wakefulness, but almost every function in any living organism, including such functions...
