Our research aims to elucidate how cells alter their fates between normal or disease conditions. To address this, we model regeneration and tumorigenesis using Drosophila gonads. We use a combination of fly genetics with various imaging techniques, including immunofluorescence, single molecule RNA fluorescent in situ hybridization, OligoPaint DNA FISH, and whole-mount tissue live-imaging by superresolution microscopy. Owing to the simple anatomy and abundant genetically encoded imaging tools, this system allows us to demonstrate previously unrecognized regulatory mechanisms with an unprecedented resolution.
Accepting Lab Rotation Students:
- Investigate the changes in extracellular matrix during tissue regeneration.
- Examine the difference in chromatin states between normal stem cells and stem-like tumor cells.
- Elucidate the roles of nuclear non-coding RNAs during tissue regeneration.
- Examine the mechanism of RNA-mediated biomolecular condensate formation and how transposon expression affects it.
