RESEARCH ABSTRACT SUMMARY:
James Priess uses the nematode C. elegans as a model system for studying early embryonic development and germline specification. His recent research focuses on how regulators of cell fate induce distinct patterns of morphogenesis, and how germline-specific cytoplasmic particles called P granules contribute to germ cell development.
