Research Summary: 

The expression of protein encoding genes is essential for the execution of all cellular processes. My lab focuses on understanding the contribution of gene transcription to the regulation of cell proliferation, muscle differentiation, and the development of human disease. We use a variety of molecular, biochemical and cellular techniques to investigate the regualtion of gene expression and the protein components involved under normal and pathologic conditions.
