Dr. Nicole Martinez's lab is broadly interested in RNA-based mechanisms of gene regulation. Precise control of gene expression at the level of messenger RNA processing is necessary for organismal development, required for response to environmental cues and its dysregulation is the basis of many diseases. The lab is keen to uncover mechanisms that control alternative mRNA processing and their downstream consequences on gene expression and cell physiology.
Dr. Nicolas Altemose is an Assistant Professor of Genetics and a Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Investigator. The Altemose Lab develops new experimental and analytical tools to study how chromatin proteins organize and regulate complex regions of the human genome.
Dr. Nicholas Haber uses AI models of of exploratory and social learning in order to better understand early human learning and development, and conversely, he uses our understanding of early human learning to make robust AI models that learn in exploratory and social ways. Based on this, Dr. Haber develops AI-powered learning tools for children, geared in particular towards the education of those with developmental issues such as the Autism Spectrum Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, in the mold of his work on the Autism Glass Project.
