321 MacNider Hall 333 S Columbia St., Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesRESEARCH: My lab aims to determine the etiology and then the treatment for the left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy. 2. Another project will determine how epicardial development regulates cardiac morphogenesis and explore methods to treat congenital heart defects caused by abnormal epicardial development. 3. We are also screening chemicals that promote cardiomyocyte maturation during cell-reprogramming and … Read more

Macnider Hall, Conference Room 321 333 S. Columbia St., Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesMHI SEMINAR SERIES: Jonathan Brown, M.D., Associate Professor, Medicine, Cardiovascular Medicine at Vanderbilt University
321 MacNider Hall 333 S Columbia St., Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesJonathan Brown, MD, is a cardiologist and basic scientist studying transcriptional mechanisms relevant to the pathogenesis of obesity, diabetes mellitus, and atherosclerosis. A central premise of his research involves a deeper understanding of the gene regulatory networks controlling disease pathogenesis to identify novel therapeutic targets to treat these prevalent and often fatal conditions. More specifically, … Read more

321 MacNider Hall 333 S Columbia St., Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesResearch Overview: MOLECULAR PROGRAMMING OF THE VASCULATURE IN DEVELOPMENT AND DISEASE Proper formation and function of the vasculature are crucial for health and survival, as the vasculature supplies all cells in the body. A dysfunctional vasculature causes myriad diseases, including stroke, arterial occlusive diseases, and vascular anomalies. Our long-term goal is to identify novel drug … Read more

1131 Bioinformatics Building 130 Mason Farm Rd., Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesResearch Interest: Our laboratory is specifically interested in the regulation of endothelial cell commitment, differentiation and cell cycle progression, and defining signaling pathways that modulate these processes. We also aim to understand how some endothelial cells acquire specialized functions, such as the generation and/or maintenance of multi-lineage stem/progenitor cells.
