Piotrowski Lab

Development and Regeneration

The primary focus of our lab is understanding the development and regeneration of the zebrafish lateral line and the potential applications for promoting mammalian hair cell regeneration to restore hearing loss or deafness.

Rohner Lab

Evolutionary Biology

We seek to understand how animals adapt to extreme environments, resulting in unique genetic adaptations that may shed light on human metabolic conditions like diabetes and heart disease.
