Zebrafish in the Zon laboratory allow researchers to visualize drug responses at a single-cell resolution.
Zon Lab Research
In addition to the foundational research areas described below, our ongoing projects focus on:
- identifying additional relevant epigenetic regulators of melanoma onset,
- deconstructing the fundamental mechanisms of leflunomide’s action,
- monitoring and characterizing in vivo the molecular events governing melanoma initiation at cellular resolution,
- characterizing mechanisms of melanoma drug resistance, and
- analyzing mechanisms governing neural crest mobility.
