Pamela Cowin

Pamela Cowin is a Research Professor at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, affiliated with both the Department of Cell Biology and the Ronald O. Perelman Department of Dermatology. Her research focuses on Stem Cell Biology, Mammary Development, and Cell Adhesion, with implications in Breast Cancer and Developmental Biology.

Her research spans key areas in:

• Cell Adhesion mechanisms
• Wnt and Hedgehog signaling pathways in development
• Stem cell dynamics in mammary gland biology

Publications highlight her work on genetic models linking cell adhesion and signaling pathways to developmental defects and cancer. The Cowin Lab continues to investigate these fundamental biological processes.
