Maria Barna
Associate Professor of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Barna Lab studies how gene expression is controlled at the level of translation to shape development, regeneration, and disease.For decades, ribosomes were viewed as uniform molecular machines that passively translate genetic information. Our work helped overturn this paradigm by demonstrating that ribosomes can differ in composition and function, giving rise to specialized translation programs that regulate cell fate and organismal development. By integrating genomics, mass spectrometry,
