Functional Characterization of Homeodomain Transcription Factors and Retinoic Acid Signaling in Hematopoiesis
DownloadSpring 2015
Improper regulation of hematopoiesis generates a spectrum of defects that range from anemia and embryonic lethality to leukemia. Identifying the molecular pathways that regulate hematopoiesis is therefore a major goal of both basic and clinical biology. Vertebrate hematopoiesis occurs in two...

Retinoic acid prevents alteration of neuronal morphology and locomotion of zebrafish embryos induced by ethanol exposure during gastrulation
DownloadFall 2018
Ethanol (EtOH) exposure during development has been shown to lead to deficits in fine and gross motor control. In this study I used zebrafish embryos in the gastrulation stage to determine the developmental effects of a brief, 5-hour exposure to EtOH. I treated fertilized zebrafish eggs from 5.25...

Roles for Transcription Factors and Signaling Pathways in Hindbrain Segmentation and Ventricle Morphogenesis
DownloadFall 2018
During development, expression and localization of transcription factors and transcriptional co-regulators must be tightly controlled, and in turn they are required to regulate cellular identity and cellular processes. Often this involves complex interactions with signaling pathways. We are...
