Carole LaBonne is a Professor in the Department of Molecular Biosciences at Northwestern University. She received her Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1996. Her research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying neural crest cell development and pluripotency. She has published extensively on topics such as the distinct contributions of FGF mediated MAPK and PI3K/Akt signals to pluripotency establishment, shared regulatory programs in blastula stage neural crest cells, and the roles of Sox5 DNA binding co-factors in early ectoderm patterning. Her work involves elucidating the interactions of epithelial-mesenchymal transition factors and how they are controlled by GSK3-mediated phosphorylation. LaBonne’s contributions provide significant insights into developmental biology and the pathways that regulate cell fate decisions.
