Research Interests
Research focus: My work focuses primarily on how cells build contractile units with spatio-temporal fidelity. This includes non-muscle myosin 2 filament assembly during cell migration and cell division as well as muscle myosin 2 filament assembly (myofibrillogenesis) during development. Our primary technique is high-resolution quantitative live-cell imaging.
