We study mechanisms of cell-cell communication and signal transduction to understand the processes that regulate and sculpt organogenesis and morphogenesis. We apply a variety of approaches, including classical and molecular genetics and histological techniques ranging from fluorescence microscopy to fine structure EM analysis. The systems we study include oogenesis, embryogenesis, and the development of various organs including airway, lung and various other epithelial tissues.
