The Han lab studies the mechanisms of dendrite morphogenesis and neurodegeneration using Drosophila sensory neurons as a model system.
Fundamental to its ability in forming neural circuits and processing information, each of the billions of neurons in the brain needs to establish and maintain a functional dendritic arbor. The research in the Han lab is focused on deciphering the secret of dendrite morphogenesis and neurodegeneration. By using cutting edge technologies in molecular biology, cell biology, microscopy, and genetics, we wish to uncover core principles of dendrite morphogenesis at molecular and cellular levels both during normal development and in neurodegeneration.
The Han Lab is recruiting at all levels! We welcome motivated graduate students, postdocs, and technicians to join our lab.
In the Weill Institute, we believe…
