Britt Adamson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Biology and the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics at Princeton University. She began her academic training in 2004 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the laboratory of Angelika Amon and graduated in 2005, moving on to Harvard Medical School for her graduate work, advised by Stephen Elledge. Adamson utilized innovative functional genomics technologies to systematically investigate the mechanisms behind genome integrity maintenance in human cells, earning her PhD in 2012. Following her doctorate, she conducted postdoctoral research in the laboratory of Jonathan Weissman at the University of California, San Francisco, supported by a fellowship from the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation. Her work during this period was pivotal in developing new functional genomics methodologies for analyzing human cellular pathways with unprecedented resolution. Adamson's research primarily focuses on understanding how cells respond to stress, including the regulatory mechanisms behind these responses and how they may be altered in various disease states.
