Our trainee spotlight for Wednesday, April 5th is Anthony Spinella, who is in the MD PhD program in the BUSM Department of Biochemistry and Cell Biology under PI Dr. Bob Varelas. The Varelas Lab uses molecular and genetic approaches to understand how cell polarity and mechanical cues direct the activity of the transcriptional effectors YAP and TAZ to control mammalian organ development, homeostasis and disease processes.
