I come from the North Shore of Massachusetts, and I studied biochemistry at 哈佛学院, starting my research career purifying clathrin proteins from sheep brain at Harvard Medical School. I continued my studies as a graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 在剑桥, MA where I studied the role of DNA methylation in the development of the mouse, working in the lab of Rudolf Jaenisch. I then switched to developmental neuroscience as a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Yves-Alain Barde at the Max Planck Institute of Neurobiology in Munich, 德国, and subsequently as a group leader at the University of Heidelberg, 德国, 从2003年到2013年. 在这个时候, I developed tools to visualize with fluorescent proteins the embryonic development of the central nervous system (CNS), using genetically-altered mice as a model. My laboratory has discovered that primary cilia, a special microtubule-based organelle found in every cell, control early events in CNS development, 包括形态发生, 边界的形成, 神经发生, 神经生长. 在德国工作, I developed many international collaborations exploring the role of primary cilia in the development of a variety of CNS structures, 包括前脑, 中脑, 脊髓. After my return to the USA as an Associate Professor at the University of New England, I am now moving into the analysis of postnatal phenotypes associated with loss of primary cilia in specific neuronal populations. We hope thereby to model some of the cognitive / neurodevelopmental defects seen in subsets of patients with so-called ciliopathies, multispectrum diseases associated with defects in proteins localizing to the primary cilium or the underlying basal body.
