(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Temporal and spatial variation of histone methylation is an important factor in mammalian development. Deciphering the details of such epigenetic phenomena has the potential to enrich both stem cell biology and therapeutics, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Even prior to the elucidation of the structure of DNA, the theoretical foundations of population genetics had been well developed. Advances made by Sewall Wright, John B.S. Haldane, and Ronald A. Fisher form the basis with ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)In the clinical management of voice patients, quantifying vocal function is becoming increasingly important both for corroborating clinicians' subjective impressions during a voice evaluation and for assessing the effectiveness ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Telehealth technologies are being employed to increase access, quality of care, and cost containment. However, there are no widely accepted measures of telehealth performance and little information about long-term changes ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Cancer is a Darwinian evolutionary process in which rounds of mutation and selection lead to increasingly fit clones. Understanding how cancers evolve and in particular how they form lethal metastases is critical to informing ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Large health cohort studies are among the most effective ways in studying the causes, treatments and outcomes of diseases by systematically collecting a wide range of data over long periods. The wealth of data in such ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Instead of focusing on the cell, or the genotype, or on any single measurement modality, using integrative biology allows us to think holistically and horizontally. A disease like diabetes can lead to myocardial infarction, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)There is a constant demand for enormous numbers of high quality hepatocytes in the fields of cell transplantation, pharmacotoxicology, tissue engineering, and bioartificial assist devices. The scarcity of viable hepatocytes ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for at least 10% of all deaths globally. Current therapies for cancer include surgical excision, chemotherapy and immunotherapy. CD8[+] T cells are adaptive immune ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Gene therapy has been heralded as a possible approach to a variety of diseases and conditions, ranging from cancer and heart disease to blindness and neurodegenerative diseases. However, progress in gene therapy requires ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)Background/Aims: Autofluorescence spectra have been collected from colonic mucosa with optical fiber contact probes. This technique was found to be sensitive to the biochemical and microarchitectural differences between ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The overall goal of this research is to acquire a more complete picture of the neurological processes of visual influences on speech perception and to investigate effects of hearing status on AV speech perception. More ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Vestibular schwannomas (VSs), the most common tumors of the cerebellopontine angle, arise from Schwann cells of the vestibular nerve. VSs can lead to sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), disequilibrium, facial nerve paralysis, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Our lab's long-term goal is to elucidate the circuitry of the visual cortex, to develop quantitative computational models of neuronal function in the visual cortex, and to establish how these models may relate to visual ...
