Cell, Developmental and Organismal Physiology

The Cell, Developmental and Organismal Physiology research interest group at Kennesaw State University (KSU) addresses questions in cell biogenesis and maintenance, and how cellular and molecular processes are integrated at the organismal level. Topics studied include migration, cell-cell interactions and differentiation pathways underlying development and aging of tissues and organs, stress physiology, and understanding links between form and function. We apply experimental genetics using cell culture, the mouse, C. elegans, and Drosophila models.
