The main focus of my research has been on the molecular and cellular biology of eukaryotic viruses, specifically herpes viruses. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a herpes virus which is very species and cell-type specific, preferring to grow in dif

My research focuses on the segregation of chromosomes during cell division. Chromosomes are the bodies that contain our DNA and it’s critical that each cell has the correct DNA in the correct quantity. The consequences of errors in distribu
- Moria Chambers, Associate Professor of Biology h-index 11
My research group studies microbial pathogenesis using the model organism, Drosophila melanogaster, to explore how carrying persistent and non-lethal infections influences the organisms behavior and physiology. We are particularly intereste

My interests in biology are diverse and as an integrative biologist my research draws from physiology, ecology, evolution and molecular biology. In my lab we study the physiological and molecular underpinnings of aging and how these traits

Light regulated developmental processes in photosynthetic organisms. I use molecular genetic and physiological approaches to study how photosynthetic organisms (plants and cyanobacteria) adapt to changes in their light environment. My curre

During development of a single cell, the fertilized egg, is transformed into a mature organism. This remarkable transformation not only requires the generation of a large number of cells, but also requires that these cells organize themselv

My lab studies a rather unique form of cell locomotion known as gliding. Most cells that can move do so either by swimming (using cilia or flagella) or by crawling (like an amoeba), and much is known about the molecular mechanisms that powe
