Confronting the root causes of disease through collaboration and innovation
Uncertainty is a fact of life for just about any PhD student, especially in the hectic final year of a thesis project. So much can change and so much is unknown. Data shifts. Funding is fickle. The right postdoc job could require relocation to a faraway city. It’s all part of the territory for a young scientist. But nothing can prepare a PhD student to complete a project in a pandemic.

Drug discovery, disease modeling, and donations of personal protective equipment are just some of the ways ISCRM labs are rallying to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. Read More
Researchers hoping to create disease models or regenerate organs need systems that precisely mimic the degree of complexity found in the natural world. The Stevens Lab is helping to answer the call with a new system that regulates gene expression patterns using heat Read More
Several years ago, Danny El-Nachef was given a mission to create a tool to observe and track how stem cells behaved during the earliest stages of human heart development. While the focus of the challenge was human biology, the x-factor in the solution came from the sea. Read More
