“Mac is really excelling in his research.  He has invented ways to detect RNA folding in protocells at the single nucleotide level and to apply Next-Gen Sequencing to origins of life research.” - Philip Bevilacqua

Manyu's research focuses on the mechanistic dissection of long-distance chromosomal interactions that regulate gene expression.  
 

Lastisha’s research uses C. elegans, microscopic worms, as a model organism to study muscle dysfunction associated with the human disease adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency (ASLD).
