Heather A. Hundley studies how cells modify and regulate RNA, the messenger molecules that carry genetic instructions. Much of her work focuses on a process called A-to-I RNA editing, carried out by enzymes known as ADARs, and how this editing affects development, fertility, and survival in the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans, a widely used model organism. Her lab also develops laboratory methods to detect and study RNA editing and to identify the RNA targets of editing enzymes.
