  • Rahel Woldeyes

    Rahel Woldeyes

    Basic Life Research Scientist

    BioThe goal of my current research is to use high-resolution imaging techniques to interrogate outstanding questions in cardiac cell biology, with a focus on the signaling pathways that trigger heart muscle contraction. I currently use cryo-electron tomography-based imaging approaches to connect the molecular and cellular scales of biology and accelerate our understanding of human health and disease.
