Mark Zweifel

Mark Zweifel is a researcher at the University of Minnesota within the Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Development. His work focuses on actin dynamics, formin proteins, and cytoskeletal regulation in cellular processes.

Research Interests:

• Actin filament nucleation and elongation
• Formin-profilin interactions
• Cytoskeletal mechanics in meiosis
• LINC complex functionality

Key Research Trends: His recent publications (2020–2025) examine actin polymerization kinetics, profilin-actin delivery mechanisms, and formin-mediated cytoskeletal organization using biochemical and biophysical approaches.

Collaboration Network: Active collaborations with researchers like Courtemanche, Greenstein, and Sherer, with significant Scopus citations across studies on actin regulation and meiotic processes.
