Research Areas
The pituitary regulates major physiological functions, including growth, sexual maturation and metabolism, and influences gene expression and epigenetic state in other tissues. We are using single-cell multi-omics approaches to elucidate the cellular heterogeneity, regulatory networks and pathophysiological changes in the pituitary.
Ongoing Research
- Characterization of the epigenetic mechanisms underlying pituitary adenomas
- FSHB regulation in pituitary gonadotropes
- Mechanisms underlying gene circuit regulation during the estrous cycle
- Pituitary plasticity during hypothyroidism
