Lab Group
A member of the David Warshaw LaboratoryResearch Description
I am involved in experiments looking at the function of myosin-binding protein C and its role in cardiac muscle contraction, insulin granule secretion, and myosin transport on actin networks. I also provide general laboratory support by preparing reagents and ordering needed supplies.
