Cell Biology: a branch of biology that studies the different structures and functions of the cell and focuses mainly on the idea of the cell as the basic unit of life. Cell biology explains the structure, organization of the organelles they contain, their physiological properties, metabolic processes, Signaling pathways, life cycle, and interactions with their environment. This is done both on a microscopic and molecular level as it encompasses prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells.
Madin Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells can form a polarized epithelial layer in culture. We and others have observed that these layers are frequently characterized by extralayer cells, posit...
The transport properties of biomolecules in cells can reveal a great deal about the functional interactions regulating cells at the molecular level. Various biophysical methods have been dev...
How organisms control organ size is a fundamental question in developmental and regenerative biology. The underlaying mechanisms are not well defined. For instance, we don’t fully unde...

Many questions at the forefront of biology depend on the interactions of millions of single cells. My lab develops technologies for studying large numbers of single cells. In this talk, I wi...
If you have ever worked in the field of gene-editing, then you must know the powerful gene-editing technology known as CRISPR. It has the potential to alter science and biotechnology at an i...
Techniques to analyze and sort single cells based on secreted products have the potential to transform our understanding of cellular biology as well as accelerate the development of next gen...
The basic units of biological structure and function are cells, which exhibit wide variation in regard to both type and state. We assess such variation by simultaneously profiling the transc...
Targeted therapies for cancer are increasingly being developed as an alternative for, and in addition to, immunotherapy. Altered tumor signaling can be exploited to single-out cancer cells f...
While many technologies focus on either exploring the spatial context of a handful of targets, or expression patterns of hundreds or thousands of targets in bulk samples or dissociated singl...
Background: Growing evidence supports the critical role of preexisting immune response in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, there are limitations with current evaluation approac...
We applied CITE-Seq to measure >150 cell surface immune markers and checkpoint proteins simultaneous to RNA-Sequencing. We resolve the tumour-immune milieu with high precision and reveal...
