Burris, Thomas
research focuses on chemical biology of nuclear receptors, protein molecules that mediate hormone activity inside the cell that are potential drug targets for a number of diseases including prostate, breast and colon cancers, as well as type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, metabolic syndrome and autoimmunity.
Conkright, Michael
studies the molecular events that govern the conversion of the cyclic AMP signaling cascade into transcriptional activation of target gene using cell-based high-throughput technologies.
Liang, Chris
