Eric Van Nostrand, Ph.D. - PI
Eric grew up loving math, and the application of statistics and computational tools with experimental genomics to understand biology was a natural fit. He is interested in developing new experimental and computational tools to improve our ability to identify and quantify RNA processing and RNA regulatory networks, and using these tools to better understand how alteration of RNA processing is a driver of many human diseases.

Charlotte Le Roux
Charlotte has always been interested in a wide variety of subjects but decided to study biology for her BSc due to it’s diverse nature and relevance to medicine. Her undergraduate RNA biology class was both eye-opening and inspiring - she has been interested in the complex and versatile nature of RNA ever since. In the Van Nostrand Lab, Charlotte is interested investigating RNA regulatory networks and alterations in the expression of RBPs and their targets which may drive human diseases.
