Raj Logan

Dr. Raj Logan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Wichita State University's Fairmount College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. His research focuses on developmental systems biology, with particular expertise in organogenesis and extracellular matrix dynamics. He investigates the molecular mechanisms underlying organ formation and function using model systems including Drosophila.

Dr. Logan's research program examines how transcriptional networks and signaling pathways coordinate organ development, with recent work using single-cell transcriptomics to map developmental processes. He maintains the DAISY Lab (Developmental and Integrative Systems Biology Lab) where he mentors students in developmental biology research techniques.

His publications contribute to understanding extracellular matrix dynamics in biological processes and pathologies, with applications in bioengineering and regenerative medicine. Recent studies focus on how transcriptional regulators like Ribbon and CrebA orchestrate secretory machinery during organ development.
