The Tatara Laboratory applies engineering technologies to study and treat infectious diseases. We are particularly engaged in device-related infection, orthopedic immunology, and pathogen virulence on biomaterial surfaces. 

The primary aim of our research is to advance the understanding of chronic liver diseases, including metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), alcoholic liver disease (ASH), liver fibrosis/cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). By leveraging advanced 'omics' technologies, mouse genetics, and sophisticated pathohistological analyses, we strive to uncover the fundamental mechanisms behind the onset and progression of these diseases. Ultimately, our goal is to translate these insights into innovative therapeutic strategies to improve patient outcomes.

Dr. Rajji focuses on improving cognition in older adults with or at risk for dementia through brain stimulation, with cognitive, functional, and pharmacological modalities.

Skip to main content Research Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia in the elderly and remains a devastating disease with currently no cure and limited therapeutic options. The exact pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease is being actively investigated, but a leading hypothesis is tha…

This people page introduces the principal investigator, Dr. Shuang Liang, of the Liang Lab along with current and past members of the lab. 

We research the involvement of post-translational modifications (such as ubiquitination, glycosylation) in glycogen biology and its role in glycogen metabolism related neurological and neuromuscular diseases. We also aim to develop appropriate therapies against these diseases using cutting-edge technologies such as gene therapy.

Meet the Calvier Lab's team.

We are broadly interested in how energy is regulated on a systems level during infection. Our current projects are focused on understanding the role that adipose tissue plays in the response to influenza and SARS-CoV2.
