The Jones Lab primary goal is characterizing fundamental mechanisms that are involved in regulating stem cell behavior. Once such mechanisms are established, we are interested in understanding how these mechanisms are altered by organismal aging or chronic or acute changes in metabolism, leading to age-onset diseases, such as cancer.
Research Summary:
Defining conserved mechanisms regulating stem cell behavior and how these are altered with age and in response to chronic or acute changes in metabolism.
