By studying these fundamental molecular machines, microtubules built from alpha- and beta-tubulin proteins, the lab seeks to answer open questions about how microtubules adapt and specialize in human cells and across diverse organisms. We aim to uncover how tubulin mutations contribute to human diseases, filling key
