Kimberly McCall is a Professor in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Boston University. Her research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of programmed cell death and cell clearance, particularly in the context of Drosophila melanogaster. Her laboratory studies the roles of germline cell death during various stages of development and the evolutionary conservation of cell death pathways between Drosophila and humans. Through the use of genetic and molecular approaches, her work aims to investigate the mechanisms behind cell clearance in the ovary and brain. McCall's research has significant implications for understanding auto-immune and neurodegenerative diseases associated with defective dead cell clearance. She holds a PhD from Harvard University and has garnered numerous awards for her contributions to the field, including being a member of the NIH Cellular Mechanisms of Aging and Development study section from 2014 to 2018. She has published extensively and her contributions have been recognized within academic circles, leading to her election as the New England Representative for the Drosophila Board. She continues to mentor students and contribute to the academic community through her roles and research efforts.
Department of Law offers JD, LLM, and Master's in Study of Tax Law.
