WOLBERGER LAB

Welcome to the laboratory of Cynthia Wolberger, located in the Department of
Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry. Our research is focused on the structural
and mechanistic basis of transcriptional regulation and ubiquitin signaling. We
use a combination of cryo-EM, x-ray crystallography, and a variety of
biophysical and biochemical approaches to gain insights into the fundamental
mechanisms underlying these processes. Please follow the links on this page to
learn more about our research and lab members.
