Computational analysis of genetic disease mechanisms using single cell genomics

Gabriel Loeb - Professor, Medicine, UCSF

Status: Current Term Now Closed     Weekly Hours: to be negotiated     Location: Off Campus

I am a scientist and physician investigating molecular mechanisms underlying human disease--with a particular focus on kidney disease. My laboratory integrates computational approaches with human genetics and advanced experimental models to discover genetic mechanisms of disease. We have a particular interest in understanding the molecular basis of kidney disease...

Experimental identification of novel disease genes using functional genomics

Gabriel Loeb - Professor, Medicine, UCSF

Status: Current Term Now Closed     Weekly Hours: to be negotiated     Location: Off Campus

I am a scientist and physician with a broad interest in mechanisms underlying human disease. Our laboratory studies genetic mechanisms underlying kidney disease and develops approaches to discover novel disease mechanisms that are broadly applicable to many human diseases. Many of the genetic variants (changes in the genome) which contribute...

Discovery of novel mechanisms in Polycystic Kidney Disease

Gabriel Loeb - Professor, Medicine, UCSF

Status: Current Term Now Closed     Weekly Hours: to be negotiated     

Polycystic Kidney Disease is the most common genetic cause of kidney failure. We know the genes that are mutated in Polycystic Kidney Disease but still do not have good treatments for patients with this disease. Our laboratory, which is led by a physician-scientist works on mechanisms underlying polycystic kidney...
