Genome engineering for science and medicine
Our approach
Our scientific interests lie in developing innovative methods in molecular and genetic engineering for applications in regenerative medicine, treating disease, and enhancing our understanding of fundamental biological processes. Our work in these areas capitalizes on the products of the Genomic Revolution and modern advances in the fields of genome engineering, genetic reprogramming, gene delivery, protein engineering, stem cell transplantation, and synthetic biology to create biologic approaches with the potential to improve human health.
Cellular and molecular engineering of new biological systems
We envision the engineering of a new biology to fulfill previously intractable design criteria for a myriad of solutions to challenges in medicine and science.
Commitment to education and outreach
Our intellectual interests are complemented by our dedication to training the next generation of scientists and engineers at the high school, undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral level.
