Our community

We are a research organization dedicated to understanding the roots of disease and closing the gap between new biological insights and impact for patients.

Research

AI in biomedical research

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning

X-ray co-crystal structure of B52 compound (cyan) binding and inhibiting Cyclophilin D protein

Chemical biology and therapeutics science

Intestinal tissue infected with Cryptosporidium, with arrows pointing to the parasites.

Genome regulation, cellular circuitry, and epigenomics

T Regulatory Cells. Scanning electron microscope image of T regulatory cells (red) interacting with antigen-presenting cells (blue). T regulatory cells can suppress responses by T cells to maintain homeostasis in the immune system.

Immunology

Manhattan plot is a scatter plot used to visualize the results of genome-wide association studies (GWAS)

Medical and population genetics

Transmission electron microscope image of a mitochondria.

Metabolism

This image shows human neurons (in blue), with the C4 protein (in green) deposited on synapses.

Brain health

Ovarian cancer cells overexpress high levels of the phosphate importer protein SLC34A2 (red) which pumps phosphate into a cell and leaves it vulnerable to inhibiting phosphate export. Cell nuclei are shown in blue.

Cancer

The human heart has a diversity of cell types, including cardiomyocytes (green) and fibroblasts (yellow). DNA is stained blue.

Cardiovascular disease

Visual representation of chronic diseases connections to research and medicine

Chronic disease

An intact pancreatic islet treated with interferon alpha and gamma, and stained for HLA-1 (yellow), proinsulin (magenta), nuclei (cyan).

Diabetes

Scanning electron micrograph of Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, which cause TB.

Infectious disease and the microbiome

Misfolded MUC1-fs protein (green) builds up in the kidneys of a mouse model of MUC1 kidney disease.
