Michael W. Hess conducts research in cell biology and biomedical science, with a focus on the ultrastructure of cells and organisms, intracellular transport, and the molecular basis of various diseases. Much of the work uses electron microscopy and molecular techniques to study cellular components, developmental biology (such as flatworm and sea anemone larvae), and genetic mutations linked to human disorders like Crohn's disease and enteropathies.
