William Talbot
Mary and Dr. Salim Shelby Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe use genetic and cellular approaches to investigate the molecular basis of glial development and myelination in the zebrafish.
-
Carolyn Turcotte
Postdoctoral Scholar, Developmental Biology
BioCarolyn Turcotte is a postdoctoral fellow in the Villeneuve lab that studies meiotic homolog pairing using an interspecies hybrid model system. She earned her PhD in Genetics and Molecular Biology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where she worked in Jeff Sekelsky's lab and studied spontaneous meiotic nondisjunction in Drosophila.

Joanna Wysocka
Lorry Lokey Professor and Professor of Developmental Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe precise and robust regulation of gene expression is a cornerstone for complex biological life. Research in our laboratory is focused on understanding how regulatory information encoded by the genome is integrated with the transcriptional machinery and chromatin context to allow for emergence of form and function during human embryogenesis and evolution, and how perturbations in this process lead to disease.
