The lab takes a multi-scale approach from single proteins to the organism and system level, using various cutting-edge technologies, most notably advanced microscopy, both in cultured cells and in the nematode C. elegans. Its goal is to understand the molecular mechanisms cells and tissues employ to change shape, migrate, sense, and generate mechanical forces essential for embryonic development and go awry in many diseases.

A Postdoctoral Fellow in the lab is expected to initiate and lead a new research project that is novel yet related to the core interests of the lab. Such a project would take advantage of our strengths while bringing in new expertise that the postdoc has from his/her previous research experience.
The lab welcomes outstanding international students with a PhD degree in life sciences or in quantitative sciences, with a passion for research and interest in the cytoskeleton.
