He primarily focuses on integrating and applying imaging technologies to study problems of critical biological significance. On this episode of 治愈的起点, Manor talks about the importance of high-end microscopy; what mitochondria are doing in our cells; and how childhood hearing loss has affected his life.

鲁本-肖 is a professor and the director of the 索尔克癌症中心. Fifteen years ago, he discovered that a gene frequently mutated in cancer (LKB1) regulates an enzyme named AMPK. Ever since, he has been studying the AMPK pathway to see if drugs originally designed to treat metabolic diseases could also work against cancer. On this episode of 治愈的起点, Shaw talks about his initial discovery; what it’s like running the Salk Cancer Center; and his continual drive to study the hardest-to-treat cancers.

Joseph Noel is a professor and director of Salk’s Jack H. Skirball Center for Chemical Biology and Proteomics. He studies the structure and chemistry of compounds produced by plants. On this episode of 治愈的起点, Noel talks about his love of nature; coming from a family of coal miners; and whether elephant poop is good for tomatoes.

Molly Matty is a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Associate Professor 斯里坎特·查拉萨尼. She is interested in how environmental microbes can elicit changes in behavior and neuronal signaling in microscopic worms called 秀丽隐杆线虫. On this episode of 治愈的起点, Matty talks about gaining insights into human behavior from these tiny worms; pun competitions; and sharing her love of science through Salk’s Education Outreach.

Salk research professor Marga Behrens is a member of Salk’s Computational Neurobiology Laboratory. She examines genes, environmental influences and the interplay between the two to determine why some individuals develop a neurodevelopmental disorder while others do not. On this episode of 治愈的起点, Behrens talks about the brain’s slow maturation; how she uses molecular tools to study mental disorders; and why science is one of her two great loves.

沃尔夫冈·布施 is a professor and the co-director of Salk’s 植物利用计划. He is a renowned plant biologist who focuses on understanding plant roots, which are critical for obtaining water and nutrients from the soil and play a major role in the global carbon cycle. On this episode of Where Cures Begin, he talks about why he left microbiology for plant biology; how plants can help address climate change; and possibly having the biggest collection of root movies in the world.
