معرفی
Theodore G. Wensel, Ph.D., is the Robert A. Welch Chair in Chemistry and Professor and Chair of the Verna and Marrs McLean Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Baylor College of Medicine. His research focuses on visual transduction, G protein pathways, phosphoinositide signaling, and structural biology using techniques like cryo-electron microscopy.
Education: Postdoctoral training at Stanford University (Biophysical Chemistry) and Ph.D. from University of California, Davis (Physical Chemistry).
Research Interests: Investigating molecular mechanisms in photoreceptor cells, including retinal ciliopathies, TRP channel function, and phosphoinositide regulation. His lab employs super-resolution microscopy, gene engineering, and structural biology to study retinal diseases and signaling pathways.
Lab Members: Current team includes researchers like Feng He, Sara Wright, and Zhixian Zhang, with a focus on collaborative projects in vision science and cell biology.
Labs/Teams: Wensel Lab at Baylor College of Medicine, specializing in retinal biology and structural proteomics.
