BSD BMD - Rebay Lab

About the Department

The Rebay Lab uses Drosophila as a genetically tractable model system to study how cell fates are specified and organized into functional tissues and organs. Our experimental approach is multidisciplinary, and incorporates molecular genetics, genomics, quantitative imaging, biochemistry, and mathematical modeling. Current projects are focused on transcriptional networks and cellular networks that regulate cell fate transitions and on the signaling mechanisms and tissue-level biomechanical properties that drive morphogenesis. Because the molecular networks we study are conserved all the way to humans, our work has direct relevance to human development and disease.
