Stephen Smale is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics at the David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles. His research focuses on the regulation of gene expression and molecular immunology, particularly the molecular mechanisms of pro-inflammatory gene regulation. Smale's lab investigates transcriptional cascades induced by inflammatory stimuli, contributions of chromatin structure to gene regulation, and the selective functions of NF-kappa-B family transcription factors. In addition, his group studies how Ikaros family proteins regulate lymphocyte development and leukemia. Smale has contributed to significant publications that explore gene-specific mechanisms regulating inflammation and the regulatory dynamics of gene expression during developmental transitions.
