Research opportunities in translational neuroscience
We use (big) data on genes (genome) and environment (exposome) to study what drives risk or resilience in youths who develop under stress.
Insurance Disparities in Women's Cancer Care
New therapies and surgical approaches are increasing survival in gynecologic cancers (ovary, uterine, cervix), but women often receive different care based on their insurance plan. I explore how insurance mediates health disparities and cancer outcomes in gynecologic cancer through mixed methods approaches.
Understanding the biology of type 1 and type 2 diabetes
The Kaestner lab is seeking a highly motivated undergraduate student interested in metabolism and diabetes research to join the Human Pancreas Analysis Program, a group dedicated to understanding the etiology of type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Visual development in tree shrews, macaques, and humans
Our current focus is on neural development supporting visual object recognition across mammalian species.
Ecology and evolution of species interactions in plants
We study the ecology and evolution of plant-microbe interactions.
Gullbrand Laboratory for Translational Spine Research
Understanding the mechanisms of spinal degeneration to inform new therapeutics.
Evolutionary dynamics of social and ecological systems
My lab works on mathematical and computational modeling of evolutionary, social, and ecological dynamics.
Emergency Medicine Program/Emergency Care Systems Development
Projects available in Global Health/Global Emergency Medicine.
Pediatric oncology genomics and immunotherapy research
Dr. Bosse's laboratory focuses on the development of new immune-based therapies for this embryonal malignancy of the developing nervous system to both improve their understanding of the critical biologic mechanisms driving neuroblastoma tumorigenesis and to translate new transformative immunotherapeutics to the clinic.
Quantitative medical imaging and oxygen metabolism
Development and application of imaging biomarkers in the brain and other organs, including skeletal muscle and kidney.
