Our lab is interested in understanding how the Fanconi anemia proteins contribute to genomic stability with the goal of developing drugs that will help Fanconi patients and those who are susceptible to developing cancer.
We work in Portland, Oregon at OHSU, in the Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology. Our Departmental web page (not updated wiki-frequently) can be viewed here (faculty page).
We hope that other Fanconi labs will join us at OpenWetWare to speed FA research, stimulate collaborative efforts, facilitate reagent distribution, and expand communication. We also believe that an understanding of the complex and enigmatic Fanconi anemia protein network could benefit from the attention of systems/synthetic biologists already on OWW.

However, due to differences in macroscale and microscale flow phenomenon, mixing occurs differently, and hence, the design and implementation of mixers also differs greatly between the...")
