*****The Matus lab is closing up shop! Our last graduate students are celebrating their many accomplishments. If you need to get in contact with Dave, you can reach him here, in his new role as a scientist at Arcadia Science.****
The Matus lab is interested in understanding how cells execute morphogenetic behaviors during development and how these behaviors evolve between species. We use the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans and other rhabditid nematodes to examine uterine-vulval attachment during larval development.
