Projects for Thesis
Supervision:
1. Understanding the role of the
trafficking protein KIC-1 in both vesicular trafficking and in promoting
Ras signaling.
2. Characterization of the role of scaffold protein CNK-1
in Raf kinase activation.
3. Analysis of chromatin remodeling proteins
and small RNA regulators in gene expression and in promoting the Ras
pathway.
