Instructors
Dr. Nicolas Buchler
Nick really likes oscillators, such as the cell cycle, metabolic rhythms, circadian clocks, and synthetic oscillators. Folks in his lab use a combination of synthetic biology, time lapse microscopy, microfluidics, comparative genomics, mathematical modelling, and molecular genetics to understand biological oscillation. When he’s not in lab, he’s at home on 5 acres in the Duke forest with his family. The summer fireflies are very satisfying to watch.Dr. Charlie Gersbach
Dr. Gersbach is very nice to us, so he's allowed to not have a blurb yet.
