Research summary
AI-generated

Bonnie M. Weasner studies how tissues and organs form during development, using the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism. Much of the work focuses on how the fly eye and head structures are specified, examining the genetic networks and regulatory controls that determine cell fate. The research also includes building genetic tools and resources, such as fly stocks carrying human genes, to enable studies of gene function and disease.
