Professor Tim Weil leads the Weil Lab at the Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, focusing on how a single cell becomes a fully functioning organism. His work explores the role of biomolecular condensates, particularly P Bodies, in regulating mRNA during egg and early embryo development in Drosophila, with implications for human diseases and therapeutic innovation.
- Research Interests: Translational regulation via biomolecular condensates, RNA metabolism, developmental biology, phase separation, Drosophila genetics, and in vivo macromolecular complex analysis.
Recent Publications highlight studies on P Body dynamics in mRNA storage, calcium signaling in egg activation, spindle morphology in meiosis, and cross-species insights into human disease mechanisms. The lab accepts PhD applications and collaborates on interdisciplinary projects.
