centrioles, cilia, Chlamydomonas, image processing, modeling, organelle size control
Projects:
My lab is interested in the engineering design principles that underlie cellular morphogenesis. We want to understand how the three-dimensional geometry of cells can be encoded in a one-dimensional genome and developed into varying cellular architectures under genetic control. We are investigating this question at the level of individual organelles (centrioles, cilia, and mitochondria) as well as through studies of the overall architecture of cells. We are particularly interested in the control of organelle size and copy number, and in the role of biological self-replication processes. Our lab uses a combination of genomic, proteomic, imaging, and mathematical modeling approaches.
Interests:
flagellar length control, organelle size control, centriole duplication and number control, orientation of centrioles and cilia, cell shape, inheritance of spatial information, self-organization, detecting structure in apparently amorphous objects, pattern formation in single cells

Description of Work:
Graduate student, advisor John Sedat, Dept. of Biochemistry. Developed software tools for analyzing three-dimensional structure and dynamics within the nucleus, and used them to identify specific interactions sites of chromatin with the nuclear envelope and to quantify the diffusional motion of interphase chromatin in living cells.
