Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe goals of Dr. Galli's laboratory are to understand the regulation of mast cell and basophil development and function, and to develop and use genetic approaches to elucidate the roles of these cells in health and disease. We study both the roles of mast cells, basophils, and IgE in normal physiology and host defense, e.g., in responses to parasites and in enhancing resistance to venoms, and also their roles in pathology, e.g., anaphylaxis, food allergy, and asthma, both in mice and humans.

Dita Gratzinger
Professor of Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI have research interests in the interaction of hematolymphoid neoplasia with the microenvironment. For example, I use a combination of immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence and image analysis techniques to evaluate the mesenchymal stromal cell compartment in myelodysplastic syndrome (pre-leukemic bone marrow failure disorder). I also have interests in lymphoma vasculature and the tropism of lymphoma for specific types of vasculature.

Wei Gu
Assistant Professor of Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe develop breakthrough technologies in molecular testing to advance early and minimally invasive diagnostics. The current focus is a methylation profiling platform using enriched sequencing. One output is the clarification of a patient's tumor type while using less or no tissue (liquid biopsy).

BioMy research focus sits at the intersection of computational biology, deep learning, and drug discovery. I'm especially interested in how neural networks can be used to decode high-dimensional biological signals that are overlooked by traditional experimental techniques.
Currently, I work in the Butcher Lab, where I develop neural network models to identify cleavable peptide ligands embedded within protein-coding genes. After computationally predicting these ligands, I investigate their ability to bind to G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), a class of receptors that mediate a wide range of physiological responses and are the target of over a third of FDA-approved drugs. My goal is to illuminate novel ligand-receptor pairs and uncover uncharted signaling mechanisms with therapeutic potential.
Previously, I’ve worked on a range of interdisciplinary projects, including training generative networks for cancer biomarker detection and developing molecular machine learning pipelines for target inhibition modeling. Outside of research, I enjoy mentoring younger students in STEM, engaging in long debates about the future of AI, and making the perfect cup of coffee. If you’re also interested in machine learning, molecular biology, or speculative sci-fi, feel free to reach out: I’m always up for a great conversation.
