Funded Activity Summary

Mammalian cells contain a complex switchboard, which directs the cell to grow, die, multiply or move in response to external cues. When communication breaks down within the cell, diseases arise. Our studies are directed towards identifying the molecules that comprise the switchboard which directs blood cell formation. A detailed understanding of the regulators of blood cell formation will equip us with a sound starting point for designing drugs to ameliorate blood diseases.
