Exploring RNA-directed gene regulation in cell fate & disease
![DSC_0411](https://labs.bio.cmu.edu/henninger/wp-content/uploads/sites/37/2024/05/DSC_0411-scaled.jpg)
The Henninger Lab explores how RNA regulates gene expression at multiple scales in health and disease. We use approaches based in molecular biology, soft-matter physics, and super-resolution imaging to understand how RNA regulates its own production to direct cell fate and how RNA-mediated dysregulation contributes to human disease.
