Lingyin Li
Professor of Biochemistry
BioDr. Li is a professor in the Biochemistry Department and ChEM-H Institute at Stanford. She is also a core investigator of the Arc Institute. Her lab works on understanding biochemical mechanisms of the immunotransmitter cGAMP and harnessing it to treat cancer and autoimmunity. She majored in chemistry at University of Science and Technology of China and graduated with a B. En in 2003. She then trained with Dr. Laura Kiessling, a pioneer in chemical biology, at University of Wisconsin-Madison and graduated with a Ph.D in chemistry in 2010. She obtained her postdoctoral training with Dr. Timothy Mitchison at Harvard Medical School, who introduced her to the field of chemical immunology. She started her lab at Stanford in 2015.

Lucas Murray
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biochemistry
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI use single-molecule tools and approaches to study the assembly and function of molecular machines. I currently am working to understand the interplay between genome structure and kinetochore assembly and function in vertebrates.

Suzanne Pfeffer
Emma Pfeiffer Merner Professor of Medical Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe major focus of our research is to understand the molecular basis of inherited Parkinson's Disease (PD). We focus on the LRRK2 kinase that is inappropriately activated in PD and how it phosphorylates Rab GTPases, blocking the formation of primary cilia in specific regions of the brain. The absence of primary cilia renders cells unable to carry out Hedgehog signaling that is critical for neuroprotective pathways that sustain dopamine neurons.
