Brugmann Lab

The Brugmann Research Lab

Craniofacial abnormalities comprise approximately one-third of all birth defects. Our lab aims to understand the molecular forces that drive craniofacial development and elucidate the molecular basis for diseases that affect the craniofacial complex. To understand the forces that help pattern the face during normal and abnormal development we utilize various model systems with unique facial morphologies.
