DANIEL R. BUCHHOLZ, PH.D.

Principal Investigator

I study the hormonal control of frog metamorphosis from molecular and comparative perspectives

ZACHARY STERNER

Ph.D. Student

My work focuses on elucidating the role and importance of stress hormone signaling through their receptors in development through the use of CRISPR-knockout frogs.
