Dave Sherwood, PhD
Jerry G. and Patricia Crawford Hubbard Professor Biology, Trinity College of Arts & Sciences
Professor of Biology
The Sherwood lab studies cell-extracellular matrix interactions primarily using the C. elegans models system. Specific areas of study include elucidating dynamic and biophysical matrix properties, such as how extracellular matrix grows, stretches, connects tissues together, and changes during aging. The lab also examines how extracellular matrix regulates stem cell niche function, cell invasion, and tissue shaping.
