Primary Cilia in Islet Biology
At Hughes Lab, we investigate the role of primary cilia in beta cells to understand islet cell function and communication, aiming to uncover insights into diabetes and related diseases.
Islet Biology Questions
We study ciliary signaling to understand how endocrine cells function in health and disease.
