Etchegaray and Gao Labs Examine Gene Regulation and Its Role in Preventing Gastrointestinal Diseases
Jean-Pierre Etchegaray and Nan Gao are cellular and molecular biologists whose work examines the underlying causes of health and diseases. They recently teamed up to decipher how genes that respond to infection are regulated in cells within the epithelial lining of the intestine, which may impact future treatments for pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella and conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease.
