Roderick,Dashwood,University Distinguished Professor,"Research integrates multiomic, genetic, epigenetic and immune approaches for precision oncology. Epigenetic readers, writers and erasers that reversibly regulate immune players in the antigen presentation pathway are of current mechanistic interest. Molecular and cell-based assays are combined with preclinical models coupled to polypectomy. Clinical specimens and organoids from patients undergoing colectomy provide for human translation. Supported by the NCI, NINDS/NIA, and the John S. Dunn Foundation.",John S.

David,Threadgill,Professor,"Our laboratory uses the mouse as an experimental genetic model to investigate factors that contribute to inter-individual differences in health and disease. Ourcurrent research activities include the identification and functional characterization of alleles contributing to cancer susceptibility, the function of theErbbgenefamily in development and disease, and the role of genetic variation in response to environmental stimuli. To support these investigations, we also aredeveloping new genetic tools to support mammalian systems genetic approaches to phenotypes with complex genetic and environmental etiologies.",Director||Professor||Professor||Professor,Cell Biology and Genetics||Institute of Genome Sciences and Society||Biochemistry and Biophysics||Nutrition,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n8ee0b54f
Kristen,Maitland,Associate Professor,"The focus of Dr. Maitland's research is on the development of light-based technologies for applications in medicine and biology. Technologies include novel light sources, optical fiber based imaging systems, handheld microscopes, multiscale optical microscopes, volumetric imaging systems, portable spectrometers, and point-of-care devices.",Director||Associate Professor,Biomedical Engineering||Microscopy and Imaging Center,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n96bdddbb

Jeffrey,Cirillo,Professor,"Our laboratory is interested in the pathogenesis of bacterial lung infections particularly tuberculosis and Legionnaires' disease. We are examining the virulence mechanisms of bacteria using cellular, molecular and genetic techniques. Our primary research goal is to obtain a better understanding of the roles of the pathogen and host in disease. These studies should contribute to our understanding of host-pathogen interactions at the molecular and cellular level that can be used for prevention, treatment and diagnosis. We hope that through a better understanding of the mechanisms by which these organisms cause disease we can prevent some, if not all, of these infections in the future.",Professor||Director,Microbial Pathogenesis and Immunology||Center for Airborne Pathogen Research and Tuberculosis Imaging,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/ne8bc1122
Margaret,Foster,Professor,"Margaret J. Foster, MS, MPH, AHIP, is the Evidence Synthesis and Scholarly Communication Librarian and the Director of the Center for Systematic Reviews and Research Syntheses at the Medical Sciences Library, Texas A&M University. With nearly 2 decades of experience collaborating on reviews, she has published in medicine, veterinary medicine, education, agriculture, engineering, and other fields. She is the co-author of the first book written on systematic reviews for librarians- Assembling the Pieces of a Systematic Review: A Guide for Librarians (2017) and recently Piecing Together Systematic Reviews and Other Evidence Syntheses (2022).",Director,Center for Systematic Reviews and Research Syntheses,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/nf338d96d
