Shoichet study sheds light on “dark” cell receptors, potential drug targets

More than a quarter of all drugs work by targeting one of a large family of proteins called G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Hundreds of different GPCRs are embedded in cell membranes, converting stimuli from the outside world—neurotransmitters, hormones, even light—into intracellular signals...

Steven Altschuler, PhD

Professor

In my lab, I seek to understand design principles of biological systems and how biological networks rewire during disease progression. I bring to my biology research a blend of experimental science, engineering, and mathematics. Projects in my lab integrate advance technology, experiment, machine-...
