Stanford University

Mike is an associate professor in the Department of Genetics at Stanford University. He did his postdoctoral work with Jonathan Weissman at UCSF, developing strategies for pooled high-throughput screens to study cellular uptake. As a graduate student, he studied regulation of cell death in the lab of Stanley Korsmeyer at Harvard. His work is broadly collaborative and develops and applies high-throughput CRISPR screening technologies and omics tools to study the basic biology of cell-cell interactions and cell state changes in disease.
