Dr. Calarcos research lies at the intersection of RNA biology and neurobiology. His work will develop a deeper understanding of how control over the processing and maintenance of messenger RNAs contributes to the growth and specialization of cells of the brain called neurons. RNA biology has witnessed an explosion of exciting new discoveries, permeating many areas of biological research. Dr. Calarcos unique research program will contribute to this exciting area of inquiry through the use of both cutting-edge and well-established molecular approaches, leading to new discoveries of how nervous systems are built, with potential therapeutic applications in regenerative medicine.

Calarcos博士的研究处于RNA生物学和神经生物学的交叉点。他的工作将使人们更深入地了解如何控制信使RNA的加工和维持，从而促进称为神经元的大脑细胞的生长和特化。RNA生物学见证了令人兴奋的新发现的爆炸，渗透到生物学研究的许多领域。Calarcos博士独特的研究计划将通过使用尖端和成熟的分子方法为这一令人兴奋的研究领域做出贡献，从而发现神经系统是如何构建的，并在再生医学中具有潜在的治疗应用。
