Community & Collaboration
We benefit from close working relationships with labs that have complementary expertise in metabolism, cancer, biochemistry, and cutting-edge technologies. These relationships also help trainees build a strong network to support their future careers. Here we highlight some of our most active and longstanding collaborative relationships.
Wiseman Lab (Scripps Research)
We work closely with the Wiseman Lab at Scripps to understand the interplay of circadian biology with proteostasis networks and drug metabolism.
Shaw Lab (Salk Institute)
We have a longstanding collaborative relationship with the Shaw Lab investigating relationships between circadian rhythms, AMP-activated protein kinase, and cancer biology.
Metallo Lab (Salk Institute)
We work with Christian Metallo's group to apply metabolic tracing to understand how circadian clocks influence substrate selection and utilization in the context of exercise and cancer.
Evans Lab (Salk Institute)
We continue to work with the lab of Katja's postdoctoral mentor, Ronald Evans, to investigate circadian regulation of nuclear hormone receptors and exercise physiology.
Lohmueller Lab (UCLA)
We are working with the Lohmueller Lab at UCLA to quantitatively measure the impact of genetic or environmental circadian disruption on de novo mutation rates.
Partch Lab (UC Santa Cruz)
We enjoy working with Carrie Partch to understand how CRY proteins interact with a variety of transcriptional networks in biochemical detail.
