Research Interests

Exploration of the genetic underpinnings of behavior using zebra fish as a model.

Jason Cyster

Field: Biology
Packard Fellowship award year: 1998

Research Interests

Jason Cyster studies molecular mechanisms of lymphoid tissue patterning. "Lymphoid tissues play a central role in immunity," he says. Lymphoid tissues promote encounters between antigen, antigen presenting cells, and rare antigen-specific lymphocytes.

Didier Stainier

Field: Biochemistry
Packard Fellowship award year: 1995

Research Interests

We are interested in how organs form during vertebrate embryogenesis. We focus on the development of the heart and use the zebra fish, a simple vertebrate model system that allows a combination of embryological and genetic approaches.

Jonathan Weissman

Field: Biochemistry
Packard Fellowship award year: 1996

Research Interests

Our laboratory studies the mechanism of chaperone-mediated protein folding. We currently focus on understanding the mechanism of action of a particular chaperone, GroEL, as well as identifying novel chaperones important for folding in the endoplasmic reticulum.
