Mechanisms of stem cell aging that contribute to clonal outgrowth in head and neck tissues
Project Summary/Abstract By the year 2050, it is projected that over 72 million people will be 65-years or older in the United States, representing 20% of the population. This rapi...
Role of the Ciliary Protein C2CD3 in Mandibular Skelotogenesis
Project Summary/Abstract Primary cilia are non-motile, microtubule-based organelles that protrude from the cellular membrane to sense the cell’s external environment and to coordin...
Dissecting Innate Immune Responses to Salmonella Enteritidis
Project Summary and Abstract Salmonella enterica is the leading cause of food-borne hospitalizations in the United States. The Salmonella enterica species includes over 2500 circul...
Molecular analysis of nuclear lamin assembly
Project Summary Lamin filaments are central structural organizers of the metazoan nucleus. They contribute to nuclear function by controlling nuclear structure, separating the nucl...
