Elizabeth E Hull

Elizabeth E Hull is a Professor in the Biomedical Sciences Program at Midwestern University's College of Graduate Studies - Arizona. She holds a Ph.D. from Rockefeller University and a B.S. from Yale University, with postdoctoral training at the University of North Carolina and California State University, Long Beach. Her research focuses on epigenetic regulation in cancer, cell migration mechanisms, and inflammatory processes. She mentors students from diverse programs including biomedical sciences, osteopathic medicine, and veterinary medicine. Key research projects include investigating lysosomal function in neurodegenerative diseases, progranulin signaling, and SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling. Dr. Hull has secured grants including the Arizona Alzheimer's Consortium award and Midwestern University intramural grants. She teaches advanced topics in biochemistry, immunology, and biomedical sciences across multiple programs. Her lab emphasizes collaborative training, with students frequently presenting at national conferences and co-authoring publications.
