Howlett Laboratory

Welcome to the Howlett laboratory Wiki. The newly established Howlett Laboratory is located in the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology in the University of Rhode Island, Kingston, Rhode Island. We are interested in understanding the causes of the rare genetic disorder Fanconi anemia (FA). FA is characterized by developmental defects, bone marrow failure, and an increased susceptibility to cancer.

=Positions Available= Several positions are currently available in the Howlett lab. Please contact Niall Howlett for details nhowlett@mail.uri.edu
