The Lin Lab studies the transformation of brief experiences into enduring memories, their impact on behaviors, and the differing responses seen in both healthy and diseased conditions. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, our research explores how experience-induced genetic programs establish connections between experiences and synaptic modifications within neural circuits, ultimately driving persistent behavioral changes.

The Louros Lab uses a hybrid approach combining molecular biophysics, structural biology, and bioinformatics to investigate protein stability, misfolding, and aggregation, with a particular interest in neurodegenerative diseases.

Sakano Lab investigates FMRP's influence on auditory brainstem development in Fragile X Syndrome. We examine gene expression and its potential link to autism, auditory processing, hyperacusis, and tinnitus.

Skip to main content Research What is Ubiquitin? Ubiquitin is a small eukaryotic protein that is attached to aberrant proteins and promotes their degradation as a form of protein quality control. Ubiquitin is first bound by a ubiquitin activating enzyme (E1) in an ATP-dependent manner and transferred…
