Mendillo, Marc L
Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics
Bio
The cellular protein homeostasis network guards the proteome from diverse endogenous and environmental insults to maintain the fitness of the organism. Ironically, this pro-survival network can act to... [more]
Mishra, Rama
Assistant Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics
Peek, Clara B
Assistant Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics and Medicine (Endocrinology)
Bio
Epidemiological and genetic studies have shown that disruption of the circadian clock is a factor in multiple pathologies, including metabolic disease, myopathy, and cancer. Our laboratory aims to unc... [more]
