Dr. Ran Kafri’s lab is primarily aimed at introducing question size uniformity in the subject of cell size. The research focuses on fundamental questions regarding the common set of signals, including mTORC1, that specify distinct sizes for animal cell types. Specifically, it investigates how individual cells of a given type are regulated to maintain an exact size. Notably, Dr. Kafri’s research findings on cell size provide a fundamentally new perspective on cancer prevention and risk. The lab examines how a person's cancer risk may derive from changes in the setpoint of mTORC1 homeostasis.
