Michelle (Oghenekvwe) Gbenedio
Oghenekevwe.Gbenedio@ucsf.edu
I focus on organoid technology to better understand stem- & progenitor- cell fate decisions.
Kayla Kulhanek
Kayla.Kulhanek@ucsf.edu
My work is centered on alterations in effector kinase pathways and impacts on CD4 T cell function.
Milana Krush
Milana.Krush@ucsf.edu
I am interested in understanding complex leukemic signals and what we can do to inhibit these.
Alan Shen
I work with Taymour on the Total Cancer Profiling project and spend part of my time in the D2B CoLab.
Eric Smith
smith@ucsf.edu
My work focuses on understanding how different cell types collectively impact the intestinal stem cell compartment.
Rita (Meng-Yao) Huang
Meng-Yao.Huang@ucsf.edu
I work with the Roose and Spitzer labs to analyze the CYTOF data generated from immunological-, organoid-, and leukemia- studies.
Sammy (Samantha) Little
Samantha.Little@ucsf.edu
I work with Michelle and various Roose lab team members and UCSF groups to generate, characterize, and Biobank organoids. My own project focuses on mammary gland- and breast cancer- organoids.
postdoctoral fellows
Philippe Depeille
Philippe.Depeille@ucsf.edu
I study the impact of EGFR-RAS signals on stem cell maintenance and microenvironment in physiological context with emphasis on the intestine.
Laila Karra
Laila.Karra@ucsf.edu
I am interested in understanding the topology of the Ras signaling network in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL) and how we can exploit new knowledge for better therapy.
Taymour Hammoudi
Taymour.Hammoudi@ucsf.edu
In a joint project co-mentored by Max Krummel I am investigating the interaction between immune cells and tumor cells.
Kristi Bahl
Kriti.Bahl@ucsf.edu
I am investigating canonical and non-canonical signaling pathways induced by the RasGEFs RasGRP1 and SOS1 and the protein complexes that these RasGEFs operate in.
Lisiena Hysenaj
Lisiena.Hysenaj@ucsf.edu
My project centers around lung cancer, capitalizing on organoids to explore immunotherapy and epithelial-immune cell interactions.
