Post Doctoral Fellow I am interested in how Fat and Expanded regulate growth and neuronal development. My current studies focus on how Fat1 and Fat4 control neuronal stem cell fate and proliferation.

|
|
Post Doctoral Fellow I am interested in football and kidney development- particularly how the Hippo pathway regulates normal kidney development.
|

|
|
Post Doctoral Fellow I am interested in the development biology of hydra, an amazing tiny freshwater polyp. An early Metazoan hydra combines a very simple body plan with a remarkable regeneration capacity that makes it unique for evolutionary studies. In Dr. McNeill's lab I am trying to uncover the role of atypical cadherins in hydra PCP.

|
Post Doctoral Fellow I try to understand how Fat signaling affects cell growth. I am working with biochemical tools, cell culture systems and in vivo imaging to investigate Fat interactors and their roles during Drosophila development.

|
Post Doctoral Fellow I'm applying Crispr to deeply investigate the roles of Fat/Ds atypical cadherins in growth control using flies and their potential contribution to cancer progression using mice. I love Basketball and watching Raptors' games here---Lets go RAPTORS! Let's go McNeill Lab!

|
Post Doctoral Fellow I am interested in how PCP and apico-basal polarity can interact to control tissue growth and development. Currently I am working on the role of Fat4 and PAR3 during kidney development using in vivo models and biochemical tools. I also love rock climbing and good food!

PhD Candidate I am interested in planar cell polarity (PCP) and I use Drosophila as a model. I am working on finding the PCP target genes of Atrophin (a transcriptional corepressor and a component of Fat/Dachsous pathway) by using chromatin immunoprecipitation. I am also working on the role of JAK/STAT signalling in PCP.
|
|||
|
|
PhD Candidate I am studying how Fat cadherins regulate mitochondrial function and metabolism (see Sing et al, 2014, Cell). I use fly models and CRISPR to define residues essential for Fat function in mitochondria, how Fatmito is generated, and if this processing is altered by the metabolic needs of the cell.

PhD Candidate - Developmental Biology is of great interest to me and my project revolves around Fat signaling: to characterize the novel function of Fat which involves in PCP and/or the Hippo pathway Our lab is awesome! People are nice! Don’t hesitate to join us!
