Schuyler Lab
The Schuyler lab utilizes computational modeling to study binding and allosteric signalling in order to elucidate complicated disease mechanisms and inform drug design. Current work includes the study of SOD1 mutations that cause ALS.
Research in the Molecular Biology and Biophysics department focuses on understanding the proteins and pathways affected in human disease. From the structural biology of cancer drug targets to the mechanistic interplay between viruses and human cells, MBB labs study the basic molecular processes underlying human illnesses.
Our department can be divided into five thematic areas:
