The Rothman Lab

The Rothman Lab, part of the Department of Biology at Stanford University, focuses on the study of cellular processes, particularly how cells communicate and respond to their environment. Researchers investigate mechanisms like protein interactions, signal transduction, and cellular responses to stimuli. This work helps us understand fundamental biological functions and diseases. By employing advanced techniques in molecular biology and imaging, the lab aims to uncover the complexities of cellular behavior and contribute to advancements in medicine, biotechnology, and our overall understanding of life at the cellular level.
