Berdnikovs, Sergejs
Associate Professor of Medicine (Allergy and Immunology)
Bio
The question of primary interest in my lab is why only select individuals, despite being genetically similar and living in the same allergen environment, are prone to developing allergic disease, and ... [more]
Burridge, Paul W
Associate Professor of Pharmacology
Bio
We use human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) to understand the role of the genome in influencing drug efficacy and side effects as well as complex disease traits. We are also interested in plu... [more]
