Our vision is to provide a more complete understanding of the regulation and function of RNA processing in muscle development. Along the way, we are identifying which proteins can bind to and regulate RNA, working to gain a deeper understanding of muscle development itself and investigating the function of alternatively spliced isoforms during myogenesis.
