We love the nematode C. elegans, because it allows us to readily combine a great number of useful techniques, including techniques of cell biology, direct manipulation of cells, forward and reverse genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology, biophysics, and live imaging of cells and their dynamic, cytoskeletal components. Current work in the lab addresses several fundamental questions in cell and developmental biology \u201a\u00c4\u00ee like how cells move to specific positions during development, how cells change shape, how developmental patterning mechanisms tell cell biological mechanisms what to do where and when, and how intercellular signals act to polarize cells.<\/p>\n<p>We have also been developing a relative of C. elegans and Drosophila, a water bear (tardigrade), as an emerging model organism for studying how biological materials can survive unusual extremes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":9205,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"layout":"","cellInformation":"","apiCallInformation":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"ud_division":[37],"faculty-mentorship-training":[39,43,44],"class_list":["post-9234","ud_entry","type-ud_entry","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","ud_division-faculty","faculty-mentorship-training-culturally-aware-mentoring","faculty-mentorship-training-oge-mentoring-workshop","faculty-mentorship-training-safe-zone-training","odd"],"acf":[],"ud_entry_custom_fields":{"ud_last_name":"Goldstein","ud_first_name":"Bob","ud_gallery_summary":"<p class=\"accept-rotation\">Accepting Rotation Students<\/p>\n","ud_telephone":[{"ud_location":"Office","ud_number":"9198438575"}],"ud_email":"bobg@unc.edu","ud_positions":[{"ud_title":"Distinguished Professor"}],"ud_options":[],"ud_sort_order":""},"featured_image":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1391\/2024\/04\/BobGoldstein.jpeg","featured_image_medium":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1391\/2024\/04\/BobGoldstein-300x300.jpeg","featured_image_medium_large":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1391\/2024\/04\/BobGoldstein.jpeg","featured_image_large":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1391\/2024\/04\/BobGoldstein.jpeg","featured_image_thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1391\/2024\/04\/BobGoldstein-150x150.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ud_entry\/9234","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ud_entry"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ud_entry"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9205"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9234"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ud_division","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ud_division?post=9234"},{"taxonomy":"faculty-mentorship-training","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/gmb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faculty-mentorship-training?post=9234"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
