The San Roman Lab uses an integrated approach encompassing human cell culture models, functional genomics, epigenetics, and bioinformatics, to uncover how variation in sex chromosome copy number influences human health and disease. The lab is currently exploring the molecular roles of sex-linked gene regulatory factors, investigating the direct effects of sex chromosome constitution in multiple […]
High linear and angular accelerations of the skull can lead to rapid deformation of brain tissue and subsequent traumatic brain injury (TBI), but the precise mechanisms of TBI remain incompletely understood. Computer simulations of head-brain biomechanics offer enormous potential for improved understanding and prevention of TBI. However, simulations must be complemented by biomechanical measurements to […]

Abstract: The rational design and control of defects in electronic ceramics is critical for property control and optimizing electronic or electrochemical device performance. Point defects, in particular, influence properties such as conductivity, electric polarization and, as most recently discovered, the ability to switch polarization to engender ferroelectricity in wurtzite-structure materials. In polycrystalline materials, the interactions […]
Our lab tries to 'herd cells' to control healing and tissue growth, and we use light both as a readout and an input to achieve this. As a readout, we use imaging to span the scale, from the collective dynamics of 'giant' engineered tissues (400 sq. mm) with tiled macroscopy, to the subcellular localization of […]
