We study adaptive evolution, cell quiescence, and gene expression. Our approaches integrate genomics, genetics, microbiology, and computational biology. We are located in The Center for Genomics and Systems Biology in the Department of Biology at New York University. Read more about our research here.

Beautiful work. Congrats @ZivNaomi
My latest work setting up white-opaque switching in Candida albicans as a model for the molecular analysis of cell fate switching in eukaryotes, out now in @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3MA2IbA , in this paper we:
