Current studies in the Ornitz lab explore the function of FGFs, FGF receptors and a variety of other interacting signaling pathways (hedgehog, Wnt, BMP, TGFβ, VEGF) in organogenesis, tissue homeostasis, and injury response. We study four primary organ systems: Lung, Cardiovascular system, Bone, and Inner ear.
