John R. Pringle
Professor of Genetics, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMuch of our research exploits the power of yeast as an experimentally tractable model eukaryote to investigate fundamental problems in cell and developmental biology such as the mechanisms of cell polarization and cytokinesis. In another project, we are developing the small sea anemone Aiptasia as a model system for study of the molecular and cellular biology of dinoflagellate-cnidarian symbiosis, which is critical for the survival of most corals but still very poorly understood.

Jonathan Pritchard
Bing Professor of Population Studies, Professor of Genetics and Biology
On Leave from 01/01/2026 To 06/15/2026Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are interested in a broad range of problems at the interface of genomics and evolutionary biology. One current focus of the lab is in understanding how genetic variation impacts gene regulation and complex traits. We also have long-term interests in using genetic data to learn about population structure, history and adaptation, especially in humans.

Xiaojie Qiu
Assistant Professor of Genetics and, by courtesy, of Computer Science
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAt the Qiu Lab, our mission is to unravel and predict the intricacies of gene regulatory networks and cell-cell interactions pivotal in mammalian cell fate transitions over time and space, with a special emphasis on heart evolution, development, and disease. We are a dynamic and interdisciplinary team, harnessing the latest advancements in machine learning as well as single-cell and spatial genomics by integrating the predictive power of systems biology with the scalability of machine learning,

Helge Raeder MD PhD
Visiting Professor, Genetics
BioHelge Ræder is a Full Professor at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Bergen (UiB), Norway and a Senior Consultant in Pediatric Endocrinology at Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway. With a background in cellular biology and diabetes research, he has significantly contributed to understanding diabetes through stem cell research. He has been a visiting scholar at Joslin Diabetes Center, Harvard Medical School with C. Ronald Kahn (2005-2006) and with Rohit N Kulkarni (2010-2011). As the Vice Dean of Innovation at UiB (2017-2024), he has spearheaded the establishment of ecosystems that catalyze breakthrough innovations, including a new Medical Innovation Centre. His research aims to unravel the biology of diabetes and endocrine disorders, focusing on the interplay between genetics, proteomics, and stem cell biology. Dr. Ræder's work has resulted in publications in high-impact journals including Nature, Nature Genetics, Nature Metabolism, Diabetes, Journal of Bone and Mineral Research and Nature Reviews Endocrinology. He has been recognized with several awards, including the Young Investigator’s Award from the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes. He has been an invited speaker at the IPITA-JDRF-HSCI Key opinion leader´s meeting on stem cell-derived beta cells at Harvard Medical School. Currently, he is a visiting professor at Stanford University, contributing to precision health research focusing on developing endocrine digital twins at Prof. Michael Snyder's Lab.
