Matthew Bogyo

Professor of Pathology and of Microbiology and Immunology and, by courtesy, of Chemical and Systems Biology
Research Interests
Our lab uses chemical, biochemical, and cell biological methods to study protease function in human disease. Projects include:

1) Design and synthesis of novel chemical probes for serine and cysteine hydrolases.

2) Understanding the role of hydrolases in bacterial pathogenesis and the human parasites, Plasmodium falciparum and Toxoplasma gondii.

3) Defining the specific functional roles of proteases during the process of tumorogenesis.

4) In vivo imaging of protease activity

John Boothroyd

Burt and Marion Avery Professor of Immunology, Emeritus
Research Interests
We are intereseted in the interaction between the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii and its mammalian host. We use a combination of molecular and genetic tools to understand how this obligate intracellular parasite can invade almost any cell it encounters, how it co-opts a host cell once inside and how it evades the immune response to produce a life-long, persistent infection.

Research Interests
We study mechanisms that affect the expression and decay of normal and abnormal mRNAs, and also RNA-related mechanisms that regulate microbial antibiotic resistance. A small bioinformatics team within our lab has developed knowledge based systems to aid in investigations of genes.

Clinical Professor, Pediatrics - Neonatal and Developmental Medicine Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatrics
Clinical Focus
Infant, Newborn, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine
Research Interests
My research interests focus on understanding the clinical pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of medicines used in complex pediatric populations. This includes identifying sources of variation in drug response through the application of population PK-PD modeling and simulation approaches. The goal is to ultimately apply this quantitative understanding to guide therapeutic decision-making in infants and children.
