Dr. Jeffrey Axelrod working as a Professor of Pathology in the department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine. He was done his Ph.D., in the area of Medicine and Molecular Biology at Washington University School of Medicine. He has a special interest in understanding how signal transduction pathways regulate morphogenesis.
The overarching goal of the research in his lab is to understand how signal transduction pathways regulate morphogenesis - the emergence of spatial organization - during development. His major project is to investigate a pathway that controls the polarity of epithelial cells within the plane of the epithelium.
