How is cellular behavior controlled by external signals?  

 what we do_pryciak.png

We study protein kinase regulatory networks that control signal transduction and cell cycle progression.

 why we do it_pryciak.png

Our studies will contribute to our general understanding of signaling regulatory networks and protein-protein interactions, with relevance to the mechanisms underlying normal cell function as well as disease states.

 how we do it_pryciak.png

We investigate these cellular behaviors using budding yeast (S.cerevisiae), which provides a model system that is highly amenable to experimentation using genetics, biochemistry, and cell biology.

 Who We Are generic.png

We are a tight-knit group of scientists working together to advance our fundamental understanding of intracellular regulatory mechanisms.
