About Us

 

Our mission is to conduct fundamental research in the areas of cell biology, developmental biology and neurobiology, and to provide a first rate educational experience for students of the Medical College of Wisconsin and its Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. Current research in the department is strong in two major areas; developmental biology and neurobiology. In developmental biology there is a focus on growth, regeneration and transcription mediated pathways in such systems as neural crest differentiation, heart development, liver development and in the area of muscle atrophy and plasticity.
