The universe contains all of space, time, matter, and energy. The observable universe measures approximately 93 billion light-years in diameter today, although the size of the entire universe remains unknown.
Recent advances in super-resolution fluorescence microscopy based on single-molecule imaging have led to ~10 nm spatial resolution and exciting science. We are developing new approaches to a...
Current cancer management follows a multipronged approach that include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. There is a pressing need for a platform technology to provide precision chemother...
Over 100 distinct alkane monooxygenase (AlkB) enzymes containing a covalently bound, or fused, rubredoxin domain were identified and analyzed using bioinformatic techniques. One such protein...
Protein structural disorder helps avoid misfolding and aggregation, but in impeding protein folding might also impede function. The balance between these two selective pressures on protein b...
My lab is developing a bacterial strain that will catalyze the conversion of carbon dioxide to fuels and products using electrons from an electrode as the sole source of reducing power. This...
Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) comprises products of genomic recombination that cause somatic changes in gene length and sequence. These circular molecules are derived from canonical...
Allenes, compounds containing two double bonds across three contiguous carbons, are versatile synthetic intermediates due to their substituent loading capacity and ability to generate one or...
Effective locomotion in nature happens by transitioning between multiple modes (e.g., walk, run, climb, slither). Despite this, far more mechanistic understanding of terrestrial locomotion h...
Many experimental approaches rely on controlling gene expression in select subsets of cells within an individual animal. However, reproducibly targeting transgene expression to specific frac...
Carbon dioxide emissions, known to exacerbate climate change, have been increasing rapidly over the past century. One strategy to alleviate this issue is carbon capture and utilization (CCU)...

The cytolytic activity of Immune cells toward cancer cells is finely regulated through several pathways and receptors. Although end point assays have been routinely used to measure cell kill...
With the recent successes of immunotherapies, a fresh breeze of optimism in the fight against cancer has reinvigorated the industry. Perhaps the greatest legacy will be the realization of th...
B7-H3 is actively being explored as an immunotherapy target for pediatric patients with solid tumors using monoclonal antibodies or T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). B7-H...
The identification of novel drug targets and the development of next generation therapeutic strategies remain elusive goals for cancer researchers. We believe that the aberrant molecular eve...

The major function of mitochondria in cellular homeostasis has been the generation of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. However, we have previously demonstrated that mitochondria can se...
Background: Acute liver injury (ALI) is characterised by hepatocyte death and liver inflammation. Macrophages play a pivotal role in ALI by phagocytosing dead cells and producing pro-regener...
Coordination of immune cell metabolic programs with cell fate and state is a fundamental determinant of immune responses. Emerging evidence highlights that the interplay between immune signa...
Advances in genetic engineering have improved specificity, safety and potency of T-cell receptor (TCR) and Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR-T) based therapies for solid and non-solid tumours....
Current methods to treat malignant brain tumors are highly intrusive, leading to poor quality of life with abysmal patient survival rates. Combined with radiation therapy, first/second-line...
Metabolic reprogramming is critical for governing proper T cell immune responses, including activation, production of effector molecule, migration and differentiation. The metabolic stress T...
