  Iris Schrijver is a diplomate of the ABMG, with specialty certification in Clinical Molecular Genetics. In addition, she is a diplomate of the ABP in Clinical Pathology. She is one of the directors of the diagnostic Molecular Pathology laboratory and Stanford Point-of-Care testing. Research interests include the characterization of the molecular basis of inherited disorders, genotype-phenotype correlations, and development of novel molecular diagnostic tools.

  My group’s research is on the mechanisms and consequences of virus evolution with a focus on HIV therapy and drug resistance. We maintain a public HIV drug resistance database (http://hivdb.stanford.edu) as a resource for HIV drug resistance surveillance, interpreting HIV drug resistance tests, and HIV drug development. Our paramount goal is to inform HIV treatment and prevention policies by identifying the main factors responsible for the emergence and spread of drug resistance.

  The connectivity of a neuron (its unique constellation of synaptic inputs and outputs) is essential for its function. Neuronal connections are made with exquisite accuracy between specific types of neurons. How each neuron finds its synaptic partners has been a central question in developmental neurobiology. We utilize the relatively simple nervous system of nematode C. elegans, to search for molecules that can specify synaptic connections and understand the molecular mechanisms of synaptic as

  We are interested in the systems biology of molecular phenotypes, and how genetic variation affects them. The lab combines experimental approaches in developing mouse embryos as well as human cancers with computational analyses. Our main data engine is high-throughput sequencing.

  We study cellular and molecular mechanisms of immune-mediated injury in central nervous system (CNS) tissues that are altered in multiple sclerosis (MS). Tissues of patients and of animals with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis are analyzed using histology and immunohistochemistry. We currently are studying the cross-recognition of neurons by antibodies against myelin proteolipid protein epitopes. Similar cross-recognition may link anti-myelin immunity with neurodegeneration in MS.

  The general problem with which we are concerned is the elucidation of cellular mechanisms of gene regulation which are related to the neoplastic process in humans. The phenomenon of ectopic protein synthesis in human cancer offers a good experimental model for investigating this problem.
