Research Statement

The laboratory takes a structural approach to understanding fundamental mechanisms in cell signaling and trafficking. We have particular emphases on large multiprotein complexes and on understanding the role of phosphoinositides and other lipids in signaling and trafficking. Many of the pathways studied in the lab are relevant to the molecular-level understanding type II diabetes, obesity, AIDS, and other diseases, and several projects are underway to apply information from fundamental studies to targeted inhibitor design.

For more information, see my group on the Structural Biology Section home page.
